The vastly experienced defender will join the Cards from SkyBet League Two side Stevenage on 1st July on a deal through to the end of the 2022/23 season.
The
35-year-old came through the Celtic academy and featured 29 times for St Mirren
in the Scottish Premier League on loan.
He
went on to make 80 League One appearances for Swindon Town and 133 for Leyton
Orient before he played 97 times for Luton Town and 139 times for Stevenage.
He
captained Luton to League One promotion in 2017/18 and moved to Stevenage ahead
of the 2018/19 season, winning the club’s player of the season award in his
debut year.
He
leaves the EFL with 449 appearances and a wealth of experience as well as caps
for Scotland at under-19, 20, 21 and B level.
Woking
boss Darren Sarll told https://www.wokingfc.co.uk:
"Scott is the balance that we need in terms of having lots of athleticism,
lots of younger players of an age where they still need to improve and need
support.
"Scott
is those things – experience, a brilliant character. I was quoted last year
saying that I felt the squad lacked some toughness and resilience, some
robustness and character. Scott is exactly that. He is an experienced and older
player, and, to me, the dressing room is only as good as the senior players.
“He
will be a huge influence both on and off the pitch, whether fit or injured. He
has a huge role to play in the character and feel of the group. He still has so
many qualities as a player to give: a very good defender, organiser of a team,
and he fits along with our other signings to make the team more of an EFL-type
side.
“I’m
delighted, after a very long pursuit and with him turning down many other
clubs, that Scott Cuthbert will be a Woking player". |
