Jez returns to the Gladiators!

Matlock Town Football Club is delighted to announce the return of exciting winger Jesurun Uchegbulam, who joins the Gladiators from Cymru Premier champions and UEFA Champions League participants, The New Saints FC (TNS).

One of the most popular players to wear the blue shirt in recent years, Uchegbulam returns to the Proctor Cars Stadium after an outstanding first spell with the club, during which he scored nine goals in 38 appearances and established himself as a firm favourite among the Matlock faithful with his electrifying pace, direct attacking play and eye for goal.

His performances for the Gladiators earned him a move to Chesterfield FC for an undisclosed fee after catching the eye with a superb display against the Spireites during a pre-season friendly.

Since then, Jesurun has continued to build an impressive footballing CV, representing clubs including Rochdale, Oldham Athletic, Eastleigh and Chelmsford City,

Now, one of the club’s most exciting former players is back where it all began.

Everyone at Matlock Town is thrilled to welcome Jesurun back to the Proctor Cars Stadium and cannot wait to see him entertaining the Gladiators supporters once again.

Welcome home, Jez!
