Jordan Ragguette, 21, a versatile left-sided player, has joined Salisbury after leaving AFC Totton because his contract expired.
Ragguette has been at Totton for a couple of seasons and has played at both left-back and left-wing during his time there. He likes to take on players and get balls into the box.
He played against Salisbury in the playoff final, forcing a good save from Ryan Gosney as he drove forward from the left-back area and let fly from 25 yards.
A former St. Vincent and the Grenadines U21 international representing his country of birth, he played for Lewes and Gosport Borough before his time at Totton.
On completing the signing, Brian Dutton said, “I’m really pleased to have got Jordan over the line against fierce competition for his signature.
“I think he is a player with huge potential, having only spent two years learning his craft as a left-back. He fits the profile of our squad being young, fit and talented. I’m sure he will be a fans favourite next season.”
In his first interview with the club, Jordan said, “[I’m] Feeling excited, I’m looking forward to the new challenge. It’s a great club and a great fanbase.” O
n leaving AFC Totton, he added, “I think it was time for a new challenge; I feel like I developed well at Totton. It’s a great club and has great people around. I feel like the way Salisbury plays, the manager that’s here and the players that they have, it’s a great chance for me to take the next step in my career.”
