Steve Seddon, a left-back, is set to experience Scottish football for the first time. The 26-year-old recently signed a one-year deal with Motherwell, with the option for another year, after leaving Oxford United. Following a loan spell at Burton Albion in League One last season, Seddon is excited to make the move to Scotland.
Seddon mentioned that Motherwell manager Stuart Kettlewell’s “vision” for the club played a significant role in his decision to join. He spoke highly of Kettlewell’s plans for the club, focusing not just on the present but also on building for the future. Seddon expressed his eagerness to contribute to the club’s growth and development.
Having played 42 matches for Burton Albion last season mainly as a left-back, Seddon fills a position that Kettlewell identified as needing strengthening. However, Seddon is versatile and has also played in midfield. Kettlewell emphasized the importance of recruiting not just the right type of player but also the right type of person, and believes Seddon’s experience in English football will be valuable to Motherwell.
Kettlewell hopes that Seddon will quickly adapt to his new surroundings and make a positive impact on the team. Seddon is eager to get started and help Motherwell achieve their goals on the pitch.
