Yeovil Town are pleased to announce the signing of midfielder Joe Lea.

Portsmouth born Joe has signed a one-year contract at Huish Park after leaving Premier League side Southampton.

After seeing Joe put pen to paper manager Darren Way said: "Joe is an exciting young prospect with bundles of energy and is a player I cannot wait to work with.

"He comes to Yeovil at the same age as Liam Walsh, so I am sure if his performance levels in pre season are good, his opportunity to play first team football will come soon.
