Jack Powell: Crawley Town sign former Maidstone and Ebbsfleet midfielder

Former Maidstone and Ebbsfleet midfielder Jack Powell has signed for League 2 Crawley.

Powell was out of contract at Maidstone following their relegation to National League South under John Still and Hakan Hayrettin.

He was offered a new deal but has returned to the Football League - three years after he left Millwall.

The 25-year-old has signed a two-year deal at Crawley, with the option of a further year.

Crawley head coach Gabriele Cioffi said: “He has played at a good level for Millwall then dropped into the National League, which is where we were alerted to him.

“I like his attitude, he wants to do well, he wants to progress his career with us.

"He works hard, is creative in midfield and has very good energy levels.

"This is a position in the squad where there is now very healthy competition for places."

Powell left Ebbsfleet to join Maidstone in October 2018. He had played more than 50 times for the Fleet, developing a reputation as a specialist free-kick taker.
