WORCESTER City's ace marksman Adam Webster is ambitious to compete at a higher level.

The 24-year-old striker, who is enjoying the best spell of his St George's Lane career, confirmed his status as one of Nationwide North's hottest predators with a stunning hat-trick at Hinckley United last Saturday.

The trio at United's Marston Stadium took Webster to 22 league goals for the season, second in the scoring charts behind Southport's Terry Fearns, who is on 28.

His amazing flurry of seven goals in five games prompted City's player-manager Andy Preece to concede that clubs may come banging on his door for the former Bedworth United forward.

Webster admits he would like the challenge of stepping up another level, although he is happy at Worcester.

He said: "It would be nice to play at a higher level but until anybody shows any interest, I've just got to concentrate on playing football.

"If you score goals as a striker, you get interested. It's the same for Danny McDonnell.

"If he keeps clean sheets and plays as well as he does, he will get interested which he has done before.

"That's the way it goes in football, even for the midfielders and wing-backs. If everybody is performing, people are going to be interested, whether it is in this league or the league above.

"I've just got to concentrate on my game really and let everything else take care of itself."

Webster added: "It just seems as though everything I'm touching at the moment is going in. I just want to take advantage of that because at some stage it is going to come to a halt as good things come to an end.

"But I'll try and keep it running for as long as possible and, hopefully, I can carry on scoring like I have been doing.

"It's definitely the best season I've had from scoring terms and maybe in playing terms as well.

"I've come on a lot since the gaffer and Jock (Andy Morrison) came in. They have brought a different dimension to my game and filled me with a lot of confidence."
