Busfield started at Halifax Irish aged seven and joined the FC Halifax Town Centre of Excellence at 11.

He was offered a two-year scholarship with FC Halifax at 15 and joined Wrexham for the 2015-16 season, playing for their reserve team.

After a loan spell with Lex Glyndwr FC in the Welsh National League, winning their player of the year award, he had a short spell at Nostel before moving to Mossley and then Frickley, where he has been playing for their under-21s.

Jack Lazenby is also expected to play a part for Brighouse over the next two games after recovering from injury.

The midfielder has returned from Guiseley on another month’s loan.
