Crawley Town defender leaves to join Yeovil Town

Crawley Town defender Joy Mukena has completed a move to National League side Yeovil Town.

The 26-year-old signed for the Red Devils at the start of the 2023/24 season and became a valued member of the promotion-winning squad that season.

Mukena continued to feature for the Reds the following campaign, but suffered a significant injury, which kept him out on the sideline for a significant period.

He was able to return for the start of the 2025/26 campaign, and made a handful of appearances in the first half of the season.

A club statement said: “Everybody at the club would like to thank Joy for his efforts during his time with the Red Devils and wishes him all the best in the next stage of his career.”
