FEARS are growing for the welfare of a footballer who vanished after leaving for a train station four days ago.
Leon Osborne, 35, was last seen leaving for Doncaster railway station, heading towards Birmingham, on Saturday morning, before he suddenly vanished.
Now, his Lincolnshire-based club Brigg Town, who play in the North Counties East Football League, have launched an appeal to help find the winger.
The club explained calls to his phone had been going straight through to voicemail, in a post on social media.
They added: “We ask for everyone to please share this far and wide to get any information we can for Ozzy’s family and friends, who are worried about him.”
Osborne is from Doncaster and previously played for a number of clubs across Yorkshire in the past.
He began his career with Bradford City, making 36 appearances and scoring one goal between 2006 and 2012.
Osborne went on to play for teams such as Harrogate Town and Stalybridge Celtic before eventually making his way through to Brigg Town.
Brigg Town were formed in 1864 and are the seventh oldest football club in the world, playing in the small Lincolnshire market town of Brigg, home to around 5,600 people.
Other local clubs, such as Scawthorpe Athletic in Doncaster, have also shared the appeal, as have some of his former clubs, including Ossett United, Buxton, and Matlock Town.
Osset posted on X, saying: “Very worrying to see this.
“Leon Osborne, please let someone know where you are.”
