Devastation for Gulls Fans as Jordan Young Confirms His Departure
Torquay United fans have been left heartbroken following the confirmation that forward Jordan Young has departed the club. The 25-year-old, who joined the Gulls from Yeovil Town in late 2024, has agreed to a move that will see him leave Plainmoor after a brief but impactful tenure
Young’s arrival at Torquay was met with optimism, as he had been instrumental in Yeovil’s National League South title-winning campaign, scoring 16 goals in 47 appearances and earning a spot in the division’s Team of the Season. His performance was anticipated to bolster Torquay’s attacking options and contribute significantly to their promotion aspirations
However, despite early promise, Young’s time at Torquay was marred by injuries that limited his appearances and impact on the pitch. The club, facing financial constraints and a need to streamline their squad, has made the difficult decision to part ways with the talented forward.
Manager Paul Wotton expressed his disappointment over the departure, acknowledging Young’s potential and the challenges faced during his brief stint at the club. “Jordan showed glimpses of the quality he possesses, but unfortunately, injuries prevented him from reaching his full potential here,” Wotton commented.
For fans, Young’s departure marks the end of a chapter filled with unfulfilled expectations. While his time at Torquay was short-lived, supporters will remember the promise he showed and the hope he brought during a challenging period for the club.
As Torquay United moves forward, the focus will shift to rebuilding and strengthening the squad for the upcoming season. While Young’s exit is a setback, the club remains committed to its goals and the pursuit of success in the National League.
