Having gone viral on the internet for his famous 'rabona' goal against Barrow in 2014, the ex-City man was in demand but struggled with fitness issues thereafter as he went from one non-league club to the next.
Geddes went into management in 2019 and took his first role in charge of Black Country Rangers.
Up until now he has been in a player manager role with Cradley but now appears to be looking for a new challenge.
