New Midfielder signs for Salisbury FC

Midfielder Mike Atkinson

Salisbury FC are delighted to announce the signing of Mike Atkinson from Hampton & Richmond Borough.

26 year-old Mike Atkinson arrives at the Ray Mac as Brian Dutton rebuilds his squad ahead of the new season in the National League South and adds experience to Salisbury’s midfield.

The midfielder played in both games against Salisbury for Hampton & Richmond last season, making 42 league appearances in total, during which he scored two goals.

Atkinson has also previously played for Farnborough, Walton Casuals, Bracknell Town and Basingstoke Town, winning league titles with the latter two.

Brian Dutton said, “I’m absolutely delighted to have Mike Atkinson in the building, I couldn’t have picked a better first signing to kick off the summer.

He is something that has been missing throughout my tenure, a selfless player who makes the team better, makes tackles in the midfield. He is going to be a fans’ favourite for sure, he is someone who is going to elevate others and push the team forward.”
