Lewis Banks staying with Rovers for 2021 season



Lewis Banks has signed a new contract with Sligo Rovers for the 2021 season, the club are delighted to announce today.

The 23-year-old will enter a third season with the Bit O’ Red, having won the club’s Player of the Year in 2019 and helped Rovers to fourth place in the league this year, our highest since 2013.

Banks’ season was hindered by a persistent injury at the start of the season but he ended up missing just six games overall in the campaign.

“I’m over the moon to get it across the line. We can look forward to 2021. My first year went well and it was a very long period out. I didn’t come back fit enough to play at the start of the season. I was always playing catch-up then later in the season and some of the games didn’t go as well as I’d like.

“But I felt towards the end of the season I got some form back. The season came to an end just as I felt I was getting back to form but there is that positive to take into next year now.”

Elsewhere, Will Seymore announced on Twitter on Friday that he is leaving the club.
