Alfie Rutherford has left Havant and Waterlooville to join Dorking Wanderers.

Rutherford, who joined the Hawks in 2016, will join the Mole Valley outfit ahead of the 2020/21 season. 

During his time at Westleigh Park he amassed 126 appearances, scoring 37 goals in all competitions, and played a crucial role in the side that won back to back league titles in 2017 and 2018, resulting in promotion to The National League.

A huge fan favourite around Westleigh Park, we would like to thank Alfie for four years of faultless service and wholeheartedly wish him well for the future. 

Derek Pope, Havant and Waterlooville chairman, commented: “We received an offer from Dorking Wanderers eight weeks ago and having spoken to Alfie it was clear to us that he wished to move on. 

“In these very uncertain times it made great sense for both the club and Alfie, and I personally wish him every success at his new club. We’ve seen him grow as a person and a player over this last four years and his unbelievable volley against Leyton Orient will live long in my memory.

“I have been in close contact with Dos over this decision and we have been working very hard to secure a quality replacement for Alfie. We hope to be in a position to announce some progress on this move in the next week or two.”
