Grant Re-signs

Reading City Football Club is delighted to announce that we have retained the services of talented defender Alfie Grant for the 2020/21 Season.

Alfie is a familiar face around the Rivermoor having been a member of our inaugural squad in 2018 before leaving later in the year to sign for North Leigh. A year after leaving us the talented player returned to the Rivermoor. Since returning to the Rivermoor he demonstrated a superb work-rate and put in a great performance on the pitch in each game, earning him the Young Player of the Season award. We're delighted to secure his services for another season as a player of his calibre will help us push on next season.

We spoke to First Team Manager Simon Johnson about Alfie Grant re-signing. Here's what he had to say:

‘Alfie came to us in October after a previous spell with the club. He is a great character and a player with a lot of ability. Another one we were very keen to get sorted and have succeeded. A great character both on and off the pitch, and another player who will help us really kick on again next season.’
