Newport County have signed former Swansea City player Cameron Evans after successful a trial.
The versatile defender, 23, has agreed a two-year deal with the League Two club.
Former Wales Under-19 centre-back Evans came through the youth ranks at Swansea City, having joined them at under-9 level.
Evans made one senior appearance for the Swans, in an FA Cup tie against Stevenage in 2021.
He had two loan spells at Waterford in the Republic of Ireland and also represented Sligo Rovers before heading to Conference South side Taunton, where he played last season.
Evans said: “I’ve been on trial over the last couple of weeks and got given a great opportunity, so I’m just really happy that I impressed enough to earn a contract.”
He will be well known to Newport boss Nelson Jardim, who was on the coaching staff at Swansea, as well as Exiles chairman Huw Jenkins, who was previously in charge at the Championship club.
Evans ‘ arrival means Newport have signed 11 players in the summer transfer window.
