What happened: Worthing have agreed terms with Owen Spicer for the forthcoming National League season. The 22-year-old can operate in central defence or across midfield after training with the club last season.

Why it matters: Spicer gives Worthing positional flexibility as the club prepares for its first National League campaign. His experience coaching Worthing's under-16s also strengthens his existing ties to the club.

By the numbers: Spicer is 22 and can play in central defence or across midfield. He was dual-registered with Littlehampton last season.

What to watch: Worthing will continue shaping their squad before the National League season begins Aug. 8.
