Manager Chris Agutter has begun talks with last season’s squad as he looks to re-shape it heading into the new campaign.

Following initial discussions Cameron Tutt, Ollie Black, Fin Chadwick, Jack Bates will all be leaving the club. Additionally, Liam Nash has already agreed terms with Billericay Town for next season.

Defender Tutt ends a six-year association with the club, which is has been largely marred by injury, limiting him to 88 appearances.

20-year-old Chadwick leaves having come through the Club’s youth pathway, going to make 23 senior appearances, scoring twice – most famously from inside his own half as he captained a very young Rebels side to a win in the 2023 Sussex Community Shield.

Bates and Black both joined last summer but ended the season on load at Hastings United and Enfield Town respectively; while Nash’s time at the club was short but sweet, scoring 6 times in 16 appearances following a February move from Hornchurch.

We would like to place on record our thanks to all five players for their efforts during their time representing Worthing Football Club and wish them well for the future.

The Club remains in conversation with the rest of the squad, with more updates to follow in due course.
