EXETER CITY SIGN KEEPER SHAUN MACDONALD
Exeter City have signed a goalkeeper on a short-term deal. Shaun MacDonald has signed until January 2024 and was on the bench yesterday for the Grecians.
The signing allows Harry Lee to remain on loan at Weston-super-Mare and will provide cover for Vil Sinisalo and Gary Woods. Vil was absent yesterday on international duty for Finland and Gary Woods started against Leyton Orient.
The 26-year-old started his career with Gateshead in 2015 in the National League, moving to Blyth Spartans but didn’t make any appearances for Blyth. His career really started with a move to Torquay United where he made 70 appearances. He had left Torquay and even trained with Exeter in the summer of 2021. He’d considered leaving football altogether but a call from Torquay’s boss Gary Johnson meant he rejoined the Gulls and went on to be their player of the season.
Shaun MacDonald then went on a free to Cheltenham Town in the summer of 2022 but was restricted in game time to four EFL Trophy games for the Robins.
Shaun will wear the number 30 shirt.
Delighted for @shaun_macone as he signs for League One leaders Exeter City. Another step in the right direct- time to kick on again now
