Knowle confirm third summer addition as midfielder Will Steward signs up
Will Steward joins Knowle after an eye-catching season at Fairfield Villa
Knowle FC are delighted to confirm that Will Steward has joined the club as our third signing of the summer window.
Primarily a midfielder but known for his versatility, Steward adds further quality and versatility to Matt and Clive Seeley’s squad ahead of our first-ever campaign in United Counties Premier South.
Voted Manager’s Player of the Season at Fairfield Villa last term, he was a regular starter and made 28 appearances during their trophy-laden campaign in which they lifted both the Worcester County Cup and Coventry Charity Cup. Steward scored the winning goal in the latter to secure a 2-1 victory over Central Ajax in the final.
Steward will link up with the squad when they return for pre-season training ahead of friendlies against Boldmere St. Michaels, National League side Solihull Moors and AFC Solihull before our league campaign begins with a home fixture against FC Stratford on Sunday, July 26 (11:30am).
Joint manager Matt Seeley said of Steward: "Will was one of the standout players in Midland Football League Division Two last season - 28 appearances, two cup wins with Fairfield Villa and Manager’s Player of the Year tells you all you need to know about the kind of lad he is."
He added: "We’re delighted to bring him to Knowle and we think he’ll take to Step 5 very well.”
Welcome to Knowle, Will!
