City's long-term planning has continued with goalkeeper Zach Jeacock committing his long-term future to the Imps, signing a contract which ties him to the club until at least 2029.

The 24-year-old has made 21 appearances since moving to Lincolnshire in the summer of 2024 and has kept four clean sheets in his six outings this season.  

He was nominated as Player of the Round after helping the Imps into the knockout stages of the Vertu Trophy as Group D winners without conceding a goal.

In addition to keeping Jeacock under contract until 2029, there is an option for a further year which can be triggered by the club.

City's director of football Jez George said: "Zach has demonstrated his attributes, potential and development over the past 18 months with his performances in our cup fixtures this season so we are delighted that he has committed his future to Lincoln City.  

“In the short-term, Zach will continue to challenge George for the No.1 jersey, but this contract is also about planning and future proofing this position. We have a track record in developing goalkeepers, with the likes of Alex Palmer, Josh Griffiths and Carl Rushworth currently playing in the Championship, plus Lukas Jensen recovering from a long-term injury who we previously sold to Millwall. 

“George and Zach have the potential to join this company and, along with Jamie Pardington, form a brilliant GK union at the club, all working with David Preece and benefitting from his wealth of knowledge and experience.”
