After playing a key role in helping Torquay United to win the National League South title in the 2018-19 season while on loan from Bristol City, Jake Andrews has now joined the Gulls on a permanent basis.
Andrews, 21, who joined United on loan from Bristol City in September 2018, initially under Gary Johnson's predecessor Gary Owers, scored 12 times in 32 appearances, including the Gulls' second goal in their 2-0 win over Eastbourne Borough which clinched the title, and chipped in with many more assists.
He has agreed a pre-contract agreement on a two-year deal, as he looks to continue his development under Johnson, who he also worked under during a loan spell with Cheltenham Town in the 2017-18 season.
His arrival also provides another addition to the ex-Robins personnel currently at Plainmoor, which now stands at five players (Liam Davis, Asa Hall, Kalvin Kalala, Manny Duku and Andrews himself) and three non-playing staff (Johnson, assistant manager Aaron Downes and Head of Recruitment Pete Johnson).
Andrews could have seen out another year which he had to run on his contract at Ashton Gate, but decided against spending another 12 months in Under-23 football, with the possibility of a further loan spell, to sign for United as they aim for a return to the Football League.
