Southport have completed the transfer of defender Steve Howson from Curzon Ashton on a free transfer until the end of the 2017/18 season.



Steve joined Curzon Ashton in the summer after several seasons at Salford City.

Manager Kevin Davies said: “We played Curzon Ashton recently and we were really impressed. He’s aggressive, he brings leadership and experience to the club.”

“He’s a great personality to have in and around the squad. We’ve seen that already and we know that from talking to those that know him. We’re delighted to bring Steven to the club and I’m sure he’ll be a really positive addition.”
