Jake Taylor Joins Stevenage

Stevenage have made their first signing of the summer and it’s former Exeter captain Jake Taylor.

Jake Taylor had spent the last six seasons with the Grecians, reaching three Play-Off finals the 29-year-old brings a depth of experience to Alex Revell’s squad. Jake Taylor said of the move

I am delighted with the move and looking forward to getting going. Stevenage have been on a really good run of form since January, and I want to help build on that next season”.

It is a new challenge for me. I had a fantastic time at Exeter City, but it was important for me to go and experience something else. My family are not too far from here so it will be nice to have that support network around me, having a young family as well.

Taylor was offered a new contract by the Grecians but turned down that offer. Jake Taylor made 293 appearances for the Grecians in two spells.

The Stevenage Manager Alex Revell added:-

Jake Taylor is someone we have admired for a very long time. With his energy, his character and his quality of play, he is someone who will fit into our system. With his experience in this league, he will make us better as a team.
