Glennon Goes `Home` to Hayden Road

Pitching In Southern League Premier Division Central club AFC Rushden & Diamonds have brought Will Glennon back to Hayden Road on dual registration with United Counties League Premier Division South side Bugbrooke St Michael.

The 20-year-old, who can play either as a central defender or in midfield, has scored an amazing 25 goals in 33 games at Step 5 level for the Badgers so far this campaign.

And he now returns to the club where his career started after being a product of the Diamonds academy.

He left Hayden Road at the end of the 2020/21 season to pursue first team opportunities after appearing in pre-season friendlies for Diamonds.

Manager Chris Nunn told his club’s website: “I’ve been watching Will’s progress for some time and I’m delighted we’ve been able to get our man at last.

“His record speaks for itself, to score so many goals primarily from central defence is incredible really particularly this early in his career.

“Some Diamonds fans will already be familiar with him from his academy days but he’s a big strong lad, a presence in both boxes and he’s flexible which is a major plus for me.

“I’d like to thank the guys at Bugbrooke for helping us with this and not standing in Will’s way. Having positive relationships with local clubs is really important to both myself and the club, you never know when you might need each other”.
