Rugby Lose Hoban

Rugby Town have lost the services of talented teenager Claudiu Hoban, who has opted to join Southern League neighbours and rivals Daventry Town.

Hoban signed for Valley from Blue Square Bet Premier side Kettering Town in February 2011. The Romanian-born youngster, who signed for the Poppies after being at the Football CV academy, impressed in his first start in the 4-0 win against Uxbridge before scoring his first goal in a victory at Aylesbury. Attack-minded Hoban notched seven goals in a dozen starts and two substitute appearances at the end of last season but his departure leaves Rugby boss Dave Stringer looking to add to his front-line options. He said: “We definitely need another forward as we only really have two out-and-out strikers now. We can employ others there but we are actively seeking to bring in someone else too.”
