TONY LEE SIGNS NEW AFC TOTTON DEAL

AFC Totton are delighted to announce that striker Tony Lee has signed a new deal with the club, extending his stay at the Snows Stadium.

The 30-year-old forward has become a hugely influential figure since returning to the Stags for his third spell at the club in February 2024 and enjoyed another outstanding season in 2025/26, finishing as the club's leading goalscorer with 20 goals across all competitions.

Lee's performances throughout the campaign also saw him voted AFC Totton Fans' Player of the Season, recognition of the impact he has made both on and off the pitch since returning to the club.

One of the most prolific goalscorers in non-league football, Lee's career began at Eastleigh before he first joined AFC Totton on loan in 2015. He went on to enjoy spells with Gosport Borough, Poole Town, Whitehawk, Cirencester Town, Weymouth, Wimborne Town, Havant & Waterlooville and Farnborough, establishing himself as one of the Southern League's most consistent attacking players.

After leaving fellow Southern League Premier Division South side Poole Town midway through the 2023/24 season, Lee returned to AFC Totton for a third spell and made his debut in a 1-0 victory away to Hayes & Yeading United on 17 February 2024. He announced his return in style, scoring twice on his home debut in an entertaining 4-4 draw against Dorchester Town.

Throughout his career, Lee has built a reputation as a proven goalscorer. During the 2021/22 season he scored 36 goals for Poole Town despite missing time through injury, attracting interest from several professional clubs. He followed that with another impressive campaign as his goals helped fire the Dolphins into the Southern League Premier Division South play-offs.

Now, after another excellent season in a Totton shirt, the striker has committed his future to the club by signing a new deal.

First Team Manager Scott Rendell expressed his delight at securing his services:

"We're absolutely delighted that Tony has signed a new deal. His record speaks for itself. He's a natural goalscorer, a leader in the dressing room and someone who gives everything for the badge every time he steps onto the pitch."

"To score 20 goals and be voted Fans' Player of the Season shows the level of influence he's had. He's a player supporters love watching and one that every manager would want in their squad."

Director of Football Dave Wright explained how positive the deal is for the club:

"We're absolutely delighted that Tony has committed his future to AFC Totton. Since arriving at the club, he has demonstrated not only his quality in front of goal but also the professionalism, work ethic and character that are so important to the culture we're building here.

Tony is a player with real ambition and securing his signature was a priority for us.This is another positive step as we continue to strengthen the squad and build for the future. We're excited to see Tony continue his journey in a Stags shirt and look forward to what we can achieve together."

Everyone at AFC Totton congratulates Tony on his new deal and looks forward to seeing him continue to find the back of the net in a Stags shirt.
