Worthing have signed former Leicester City, Southampton and Brighton & Hove Albion midfielder Dean Hammond.
The 37-year-old has taken a break from the game for a couple of years, but joins the Mackerel Men in their push for promotion to the National League South. Hammond played alongside manager Adam Hinshelwood at Brighton.
The former Colchester United man won promotion to the Premier League with Southampton and Leicester, playing 12 league games for the latter during their 2014/15 survival season under Nigel Pearson.
