Havant and Waterlooville Football Club can confirm that Defender Devante Stanley will depart the club following the end of his contract with the Hawks.

Stanley, 28, signed for the Hawks following his departure from St Albans City and has enjoyed 2 seasons with us in PO9 in which he has made 71 appearances. Devante established himself as a ‘Fans Favourite’ amongst a number of Hawks supporters throughout the course of his time with us and finished joint second in our Supporters Player of the Season vote at the end of our 2024/25 Campaign.

Speaking on his time with the Hawks, Devante said “It’s been a pleasure to have played for such a great club these last two seasons. I’ve met so many great people along the way and I’ll have plenty of memories from my time at Havant.

I wish the club the best for the New Season and look forward to hopefully crossing paths again soon!”

Whatever comes next for Devante, all of us at the Hawks wish him the very best!
