EVESHAM United have added former Cheltenham Town midfielder and exciting young prospect Tom Chamberlain to their squad for the 2021/22 season.

The club released the news at the weekend, confirming he would be involved in the opening game of the Southern League Division One South campaign tonight against Mangotsfield United.

Chamberlain, 19, made three starts and one substitute appearances for the senior team, all of which were in the EFL Trophy but was released from the Robins by manager Michael Duff in the summer.

It brings an end to a ten-year stay with Cheltenham for the teenager, who first played for the club when he was nine.

He progressed through the ranks and earned a professional contract last summer.

He did an interview with Gloucester Live back in May of this year, where he said: "It's been an honour playing for the club I love".
