Worthing Signs Striker Jordan Young to Boost Attack

Worthing have moved to sharpen their attacking edge with the capture of striker Jordan Young from Torquay United for an undisclosed fee.

The 27-year-old arrives with a proven record at National League South level. Since joining Torquay from Yeovil Town in October 2024, Young has hit 35 goals in 88 appearances, a return that has marked him out as one of the division’s most dangerous forwards.

Manager's Comments

Worthing manager Adam Hinshelwood made no attempt to play down the significance of the signing, highlighting both Young’s set-piece threat and his ability to conjure moments from nothing. He described the forward’s dead-ball delivery as a major weapon and underlined his knack for both scoring and creating goals out of nowhere, insisting that makes him a key figure in Worthing’s plans.

Torquay's Financial Involvement

Torquay, meanwhile, have ensured this is not the end of their financial involvement with the player. The club confirmed that the agreement includes a clause that gives United a “significant financial interest” in any future transfer, a clear sign of how highly they still rate the striker’s long-term value.
