In the four years he spent with the club, he made 97 appearances, winning the Welsh League title and helping them to two consecutive European campaigns.

“I’m looking forward to meeting the lads, working hard and hopefully getting the club back to the Cymru Premier.”

He returns after leaving Carmarthen in 2012 following two seasons at the club. 

Howard made four appearances for Penybont in last season’s Cymru Premier but later moved to Haverfordwest. 

“I am very happy to be joining Carmarthen Town,” said the 29-year-old.

“I had some great times there many years ago and I hope to have some more this time around. I am looking forward to the season ahead.”
