A former top flight footballer who hung up his boots and donned a suit to become an estate agent after his sporting career ended is to open a new branch.
Former Notts County player Gary Lund, who is a director and co-founder of Royston & Lund in West Bridgford, Nottinghamshire, will open a new office in nearby Keyworth next month, according to the Nottingham Post.
Lund, who made 392 Football League appearances in the 1980s and 1990s, helped establish the business in 1994.
His agency’s West Bridgford office employs 25 staff.
The new office will create a further four jobs.
He said: “Our expansion was prompted to meet demand. We identified a need for an agent with experience and one which provided a high quality and professional service in the area so jumped at the opportunity when the right unit became available.
“With a growing customer base we knew we needed to extend our presence to ensure that we were continuing to deliver the high quality service we’re known for.”
Lund, who was a striker, played for Notts County from 1987 to 1995 and scored 62 goals in 248 appearances.
He spent a season in the top flight under manager Neil Warnock.
He also played for Grimsby Town, Lincoln City, Hull City and Chesterfield, as well as winning three England U21 caps, before retiring in 1997.

Beats hearing about branch closures due to bricks pishing money on some Irish football youth club.
