Former Reading youngster Lynford Sackey has returned to Berkshire, moving to non-league side Holyport.

The 21-year-old rose through the ranks with the Royals and made two first-team appearances in the 2020/21 and 2021/22 campaigns.

Both matches- an FA Cup tie against Luton Town and EFL Cup tie against Swansea City- ended in defeat for Reading.

He made the bench once for a Championship fixture but failed to make it onto the pitch.

A former England Under-16 international, Sackey was released in 2022 and moved to Lancashire to link up with Bolton Wanderers' B-Team for the 2022/23 campaign.

Only staying with the Trotters for one season, Sackey has since spent time with Sholing and Berkhampstead in the non-league set-up.

Holyport, of the North Combined Counties Premier Division, confirmed the arrival on Sunday.

Co-incidentally, Sackey could make his debut for Holyport back in the town as they travel to Reading City on Tuesday (7.45pm ko).
