AFC Telford pay to bring in Jordan Goddard

AFC Telford United today handed midfielder Jordan Goddard the chance to stay in the National League North after signing him from Leamington.

Here's what he can do - Watch Jordan Goddard star for Leamington in a league game at Bradford Park Avenue last season.

The Bucks have paid a nominal fee to land the 21-year-old, who is Wolverhampton born but came through the youth ranks at Bristol Rovers.

He made one first-team appearance for the Pirates before his release last year, spending time on trial at Telford that summer when Liam Watson was manager.

He moved onto Leamington after failing to win a contract and rebuilt his career with the Brakes, scoring nine goals for a team who were ultimately relegated to the Southern League.

Now Telford boss Steve Kittrick has given him the opportunity to remain at the level, having tracked the player since the New Year.
