Woking Football Club is delighted to announce the permanent signing of Charlie Wakefield.
The forward, 25, will join the Cards following his loan spell from Yeovil Town on 1st July, on a deal through to the end of the 2023/24 season.
Wakefield first joined the Club on loan in March and featured four times. He played 57 times in the National League for Yeovil, previously working with Manager Darren Sarll. Charlie has also played for Wealdstone and Bromley in the National League, and Coventry City in League One.

“Charlie is obviously a player and a person that I know very well, and it is that historical connection that has driven me to recruit him once more,” said Manager Darren Sarll. “The last time Charlie and I had a full season together, he contributed double figures in goals and was a huge threat. The Woking fans will probably remember when he scored at the Laithwaite Community Stadium in January 2022.
“He has real qualities and is someone who has become a player with whom I believe I have enough information and experience working with to get more from him. We will see him in a completely different light to his loan spell last season, even though I think he contributed brilliantly. In the three league games he contributed, we took seven points; he was a real game-changer away at Maidstone and performed brilliantly at home against Barnet.
“I believe this is an addition to the squad that will see more speed, real honesty, humility, work ethic and enthusiasm that will complement the attributes in our squad,” Sarll added.
Charlie Wakefield is available for player sponsorship in 2023/24. Contact wfccommercial@wokingfc.co.uk for more details.
