Whitehawk's Lucas moves from East Sussex to West Sussex as he signs for Horsham


After six seasons with Whitehawk, during which he made ninety nine appearances and scored twenty five goals, Whitehawk's Lucas Rodrigues has moved up a division as he has been announced as a new signing by Horsham, joining a host of impressive new signings at the Camping World Community Stadium.

Lucas will leave behind him many fond memories for Hawks supporters, including a hat trick in a remarkable comeback win at Three Bridges in 2019-20- a match in which he came on in the fifty first minute with his side three-one down and had a hat trick twenty six minutes later, steering them to five-three victory. He was Players Player of the Year and Supporters Player of the Year for his club in 2019-20, and topped that by being named Step Four Player of the Year by the Non League Paper.

He came through the youth sides at the Enclosed Ground and was the longest serving player at the club.
