Welcome to Steel Park, Matthew Slinn

Matt signed for AFC Rushden & Diamonds after leaving Northampton Town Academy.

After spending a couple of seasons at Hayden Road, midfielder Slinn signed a contract for the 21/22 season.

Lee gave us his thoughts on his new signing:

"Matty is a player that I'm really excited about and one I think has a great future in the game. He's only 21 and having been release by Northampton in 2019, he has been plying his trade at AFC Rushden and Diamonds where he has developed into a quality footballer who has proven he can operate at a higher level. He started the season really brightly last year but after a couple of knocks, didn't get the games he needed to kick on. He's hungry and as soon as I met him at the ground, I knew he was the right fit for the club and what I am trying to build here. A technically gifted player, good with both feet who will get us playing. Whenever I sign a player, I always get references off as many managers, ex team mates etc as I possibly can and everybody has spoken so highly of him. Welcome to the club Matty!"
