Former Wycombe striker Malachi Linton has joined Non League Yeovil Town on a two-year deal.

The 21-year-old moves to the South West side on a free transfer following his release from the Chairboys this summer.

Joining the Adams Park club in 2020 from Lowestoft Town, he made one first team appearance for Wanderers which was in the Football League Trophy in August 2021.

The youngster played the full 90 minutes in a 3-1 home defeat against the Aston Villa Under 21s, where he played a part in Wycombe’s goal which was scored by Connor Parsons.

He also had two loan spells away from Wycombe which were at Slough Town and King’s Lynn Town respectively.

The latter spell at the Norfolk side saw him score eight goals in 21 matches for the Linnets during the 2021/22 campaign, as they were relegated to the National League South.

However, his season ended prematurely in April after he picked up a serious leg injury.

Speaking on his arrival at Yeovil, he told the club’s website: “I’m excited.

“Yeovil is a big club with a good core of players and staff. I’m looking forward to coming in and adding to that.

“The manager has been a big pulling factor.

“We’ve had some good conversations.

“We share similar traits, but the main one being ambition.

“I’ve played here before, I’ve seen what it’s like, I simply couldn’t refuse.

“I can’t wait to meet up with the boys and get on the pitch.”

Wycombe have played Yeovil 13 times, with Wanderers winning just three of those games.
