The Club is delighted to announce the signing of centre-back Thorsteinn Aron Antonsson from Icelandic side Selfoss.

The 16-year-old played 14 games for the second division club last season, scoring two goals in the process.

Thorsteinn has been brought in to join up with Steve Wigley's Under-18s side, who have been unlucky with injuries so far this season.

Academy Director, Huw Jennings, is delighted with the signing.

"We've targeted an Under-17s centre-half for some time and we needed to strengthen in that area. We identified Thorsteinn whilst playing for Selfoss in a tournament in Ukraine.

"He's an imposing figure at 6 foot 6 inches already and he's comfortable on the ball. He's a very promising player for us."
