ONE OUT AND TWO IN FOR THE GRECIANS

 As well as a big money departure, Exeter City have also seen two familiar faces return to St James Park on loan. 

Forward Millenic Alli has become the latest big money sale for the Grecians, as he completes a move to Championship side Luton Town for a fee believed to be in the region of £1.5million

Alli joined the Grecians a year ago from FC Halifax Town and was top scorer with 12 goals in all competitions at the time of his departure. He joins the list of players to leave St James Park for a fee in excess of £1million that includes Sam Nombe, Jay Stansfield, Ethan Ampadu and Joel Randall. 

In addition to Alli's departure, Ryan Trevitt has returned to the Grecians for a second loan spell from Premier League side Brentford. Trevitt previously scored five times in 23 appearances in the 2023-24 campaign, and will be looking to achieve a similar haul in 2024-25. 

Also making a return to St James Park is centre back Alex Hartridge, a former product of the Grecians' youth policy, who joined Wycombe Wanderers in the close season following the expiration of his contract with Exeter.
