Harley is a composed, energetic and decisive central midfielder who brings excellent experience and a calm head to the side. The 24-year-old first joined the then Step 2 Puritans in late 2023, following an impressive spell with Didcot Town where he made over 100 appearances and helped them earn promotion to Step 3. Harley now returns to Banbury refreshed and ready to contribute to Kelvin Langmead’s new-look squad.

Manager Kelvin Langmead said: “Harley’s a player Craig and I are very pleased to get over the line. He’s calm in possession, reads the game well, and brings great balance and energy to midfield. He’s the type of player who offers real control and discipline, executes the basics very well, and he’ll be a valuable part of the group both on and off the pitch.”

Welcome back to the Puritans, Harley!
