The contract is permanent rather than a loan, which means Clucas is a Worthing player for the rest of this season and the whole of next.

The signing comes in a season when the club has already had a busy few weeks off the pitch: councillors voted unanimously on 30 September to give Worthing FC the Freedom of the Borough, and the club has taken on the suicide prevention charity Olly’s Future as its Charity of the Year.
