New Signing - Ben McManus

✍️ Ben McManus signs for Edinburgh South

We're delighted to welcome Ben McManus to Edinburgh South from Arniston Rangers.

Ben arrives with an excellent goalscoring record after finishing as Arniston's top scorer in each of the last two seasons, including 14 goals last campaign. A fast, direct attacker with an eye for goal, he adds another exciting dimension to the South attack.

Ben particularly impressed us during last season's thrilling cup tie against Arniston, opening the scoring and causing problems throughout with his pace, direct running and attacking quality.

Manager Ainslie Hunter added:

> "Delighted to get Ben signed. At just 19, he already has experience beyond his years and still has so much room to develop.

>

> He fits exactly the type of player we want at the club, young, fit, fast and with a great attitude. He's an exciting attacking player who works hard, wants to improve and I'm looking forward to seeing him continue his development with us."

Everyone at Edinburgh South would like to welcome Ben to the club and we look forward to seeing him in the red and white this season. 🔴⚪
