Welling sign French Defender

Welling United have confirmed the signing of experienced defender Thierry Audel.

Wings boss Steve King has moved to further bolster his back line with the signing of the French centre-back. Audel has featured in both of The Wings’ pre-season friendlies so far, particularly impressing against Charlton on Saturday.

The defender is no stranger to King after the pair worked together at Macclesfield Town. Since leaving Macc to join Crewe Alexandra for an undisclosed fee in 2013, Audel has racked up a number of EFL appearances including over 40 for Notts County between 2015-17. Audel signed for Barrow last summer and was made captain, but an arm injury curtailed his campaign.
