Yeovil Town have announced the signing of Aldershot’s Ryan Jones on a deal until the summer of 2028.
Yeovil Town have reportedly paid a “five figure sum” for the former Bristol Rovers youngster.
The officials Aldershot statement said;
“…the club has secured a five-figure sum rather than losing Ryan for nothing at the end of the season as a free agent.
In addition, the agreement includes a sell-on clause, ensuring the club will benefit from any future transfer of the player and enabling any such receipt to be reinvested into the club’s playing staff.”
Jones has been a regular in the Aldershot side this season, playing 18 times in the league, scoring against York City in November.
He limped off in the first half of the Glovers’ 4-1 win over Aldershot earlier in the season.
A former Weston-super-Mare, Hungerford and Bromley player, he is predominantly used down the left hand side, equally happy as a wing back in a five as well as in midfield or attack behind the front man.
He, like Dan Ellison, won the 2024/25 FA Trophy at Wembley with the Shots and returns to his home county to join the Glovers.
Welcome to Yeovil, Ryan!
Nothing against this lad, know nothing about him, but seriously, another midfielder makes no sense.
Did you actually read the article?
Genuinely excited to see this lad inject some more direct running, crossing and shooting. High hopes and a decent length contract!
This might be the making (or breaking) of Aaron Jarvis. From the highlight reel, some of Jones’ crosses and link up with the No. 9 were excellent. With Daly, McCormick, Jones, et al around him, I think this will be a huge indicator of how good our No. 9 is.
