Simon Hollyhead has swooped prior to the opening game of the season to sign dynamic midfielder Alfie Lewis from Aveley FC.

Alfie is a product of the West Ham United academy and was part of the Hammers first team squad, without making a first-class appearance. He went on loan from West Ham to St Patrick’s Athletic, of the League of Ireland Premier before joining them full-time. Leaving Ireland, Alfie joined Plymouth Argyle playing in EFL League One and the FA Cup for the Pilgrims. After leaving Argyle, he joined Dundalk in the League of Ireland First Division before joining Aveley FC in the Vanarama National League South where he made 18 appearances, last term.

We would like to welcome Alfie to Latimer Park and hope he has an enjoyable and successful time at the club.
