Gosport Borough agree deals with trio backed to have 'Football League futures'

Joe Lea, Pat Suraci and Alex Lafleur have all agreed deals to stay and Molyneaux believes they can flourish under the new regime.

He is predicting good futures for them in the professional game.

‘One of the first things I did when I got the job was to look at the current stock,’ said Molyneaux.

‘These are three players I earmarked very early on that I wanted to keep.

‘From what I have heard these youngsters contributed a lot more than some of the older ones.

‘They possess huge potential and I think all three could go on and play in the Football League.

‘I have heard nothing but positive comments from everyone about them.’

Lea started in midfield but was converted into a full-back and took to the change well.

He now wants to concentrate on further developing his game in that position.

Molyneaux added: ‘Joe is very keen on playing and coaching so understands the technical side of the game well.
