Jordan began his career at West Bromwich Albion and then had a spell at Barnsley, which included a loan period with Stalybridge Celtic prior to his move to Kidderminster.

He was offered a new contract by Fylde but has opted to return to the Football League at The People’s Pension Stadium.

Speaking to crawleytownfc.com, Director of Football Selim Gaygusuz said: “We’re delighted to welcome Jordan to the club. He is one of the most highly regarded central defenders in the National League and we think he has a lot to offer.

"He is a dominant, strong defender and he can also chip in with his fair share of goals. We’re looking forward to watching him develop and help move the team forward this season.”
