Former Barnet defender Jack Saville has joined Conference side Aldershot Town following his release by the Bees. 

The 24-year-old made 28 league and cup appearances for Barnet last term as the Bees won the Conference for a record third time.

Initially signed on loan from Southampton in November 2011, Saville returned to Underhill in February 2012 on a permanent basis and remained with the club for three years, bar a short loan spell with Ebbsfleet United.

Speaking to the Aldershot website following his arrival, the former Chelsea youngster said: “Aldershot Town are a big club in this division and I want to push on and try to make the Play-Offs.

“I played a lot at Barnet last year but as a 24 year-old I need to play a full season and the chance to kick-on with Aldershot Town is a good opportunity for me. I’m really pleased to be here."

Saville made a total of 80 appearances for the Bees in all competitions, scoring once.
