Former Aston Villa right-back Matt Lowton has signed for Witton Albion this week.

The 34-year-old is now playing in the eighth tier of English football in a bid to prolong his career.

Lowton was at Burnley most recently, leaving after the expiry of his contract in the summer.

He had been at Turf Moor for the past eight years, having also spent time at Sheffield United, Huddersfield Town, and Villa.

In a club statement, Witton wrote: "We are delighted to welcome former Burnley and Aston Villa defender Matt Lowton to the Albion.

34-year-old Matt has played over 230 Premier League games. His last PL game was 21/22 for Burnley. Welcome to Witton Albion Matt."
