Kenilworth Sporting FC have announced their third signing of the season today, as Sam Watts has completed the switch from Leamington Hibernian to Gypsy Lane.

Watts is an exciting, attacking wide player, but can also be used more centrally and further up the pitch.

He is the third player to make the move across to Gypsy Lane this window, as Sean Burke and Charlie McConnachie have already signed.

The 21 year old has completed his move today from the fourteenth-placed Leamington outfit, having started in all six of their matches so far this season.

That includes the 4-1 defeat that Leamington suffered at Gypsy Lane in September.

Following the transfer, Sporting's manager Martin Ascroft has said "Sam has a great attitude and is looking forward to his new challenge with us at Kenilworth Sporting.

"He can play a variety of positions and will add strength and depth to the squad. At 21 years of age he will also fit nicely with our young group."

Watts will be available for Sporting's trip to Upton Town next weekend.
