According to Pete O’Rourke, Northampton have ‘entered talks’ to sign the attacking midfielder on a free transfer. Kay previously played for Chesterfield and Tranmere and posted a goodbye message to Barrow fans following confirmation of his departure.
"It’s been a crazy journey at this football club,” he said. “So many ups and downs and so many memories to take with me. From promotion to survival to a top 10 finish I’ve enjoyed every minute.
"First of all I want to thank the fans for your support throughout my five years. I want to thank Paul Hornby for everything he’s done with the club over the years and I want to thank all the staff. I wish the lads all the very best for the future.
"This club will always be a big part of my life and hold a special place in my heart. Thank you.”
