The 22-year-old full-back arrives having already had plenty of experience in the Football League, making over 50 EFL appearances over spells with Gillingham and Northampton in League One and Two. After playing youth football at the club, Lintott signed his first professional contract with The Gills in April 2021 – making his senior debut in August 2021. After making 11 appearances in his debut season in League One, he was released following the club’s relegation. In 2022/23, he joined Northampton Town and made 33 League Two appearances as he helped the Cobblers win promotion to League One, scoring once. Lintott made 19 appearances over the next two seasons, before he ended last season on loan at League of Ireland Premier side Sligo Rovers.
