Welsh Premier side Carmarthen Town sign new striker
Carmarthen Town AFC have completed their first new signing of the season.
Despite strong competition from several other clubs, Jack Christopher made the decision to join the Old Gold.
A proven goal scorer in the Welsh Premier League with Haverfordwest County, he will bring added potency to the Town forward line.
Christopher scored 71 goals for Haverfordwest in 114 (+29 subs) appearances.
Manager Tomi Morgan was delighted with his new signing.
Jack has proved himself at this level and will bring something extra into the squad. Despite some very good offers from other clubs we managed to sell Carmarthen Town to him and I was extremely pleased when he put pen to paper.
Town also completed another signing over the weekend when defender Kyle Graves committed himself to the Old Gold.
Graves, a former Swansea City professional, has made 97 appearances in the Welsh Premier League while playing for Neath and Haverfordwest County.
Morgan stated: I have always been impressed with Kyle when he has lined up against us and jumped at the chance to sign a young but experienced defender.
The Executive Chairman Gareth Jones was quick to praise the efforts of his manager:
I know that Tomi worked really hard to get both of the signings which will add to the competition for places in his starting line up. With the quality of players we have attracted it says a lot about the club and the manager and that they want to play for Carmarthen Town.
Jones also praised Haverfordwest County Football Club for the professional way they dealt with the Christopher transfer.
As a club we were kept fully informed by Haverfordwest of any developments and once Jack indicated that he only wanted to join Carmarthen Town the deal was concluded almost immediately without any problems
The E H Factors and Clothing sponsored Carmarthen Town were also very hopeful of completing two further transactions before the end of the week.
With other teams having strengthened their squads in the last few weeks we have waited patiently for players to make decisions concerning their futures and have also, now, made significant signings. This will be a sign to the other teams in the league that we intend to have a very competitive line up for the coming season.
Town will hold their AGM at the Carmarthen Town Football Club Community Centre on Thursday evening commencing at 7pm.
