Llanelli announce return of Samuel and Facciuto

Llanelli Town have announced the return of winger Liam Samuel and defender Antonio Facciuto, ahead of their return to Welsh League Division One.

The duo were crucial members of the Division One winning squad that helped the club secure their return to the JD Welsh Premier League, but both players departed the club upon their promotion.

Samuel had turned out for Ammanford AFC for the past season and was a crucial member of the club as they secured their Division One status after promotion from Division Two in 2017/18.

The winger scored 10 league goals for the club, but has now returned to the Reds ahead of next campaign.

Samuel has played for the club in every division within the Welsh Football League, and will now be looking to add to his 41 goals netted in his 144 appearances for the club.

He will be joined by a familiar face in Facciuto, who has returned to the club from Haverfordwest County.

The full-back won the Division One title alongside Samuel, but the defender also left the club for County after the Reds secured their title.

The defender made his debut for the club in 2008 in what was then the Loosemores League Cup against Neath Athletic, but the now 28-year-old has rejoined Andy Hill’s men as they look to make an immediate impact despite relegation last term.
