AFC Wimbledon make first summer signing


AFC Wimbledon have made their first signing of the summer, completing a deal for Oxford United's Sean Rigg on a free transfer.

The 25 year old made 32 appearances and scored 2 goals for the U's during the 2013-14 campaign.

Don's boss Neal Ardley told the clubs official website: "I have always liked him when Sean's played against us and been impressed when I've watched him in games."

Rigg has made over 200 Football League appearances during spells with Bristol Rovers, Port Vale and Oxford.

His new manager was quick to make arrangements to bring the midfielder to Kingsmeadow when alerted to his availability, "Sean is quick and direct and can score goals, which is obviously an area we are trying to improve upon."

Starting his career at Bristol Rovers, Rigg helped the club win promotion to League 1 through the play-offs in 2007.

He has spent the entirety of his career in the Football League, apart from a loan spell at Forest Green in 2009 where he scored six goals in 14 games.
