ST IVES' NEW INTERNATIONAL STAR : FROM AC MILAN TO STEP THREE!

NOT many Non-League players can say they trained with the likes of Andrea Pirlo, Clarence Seedorf and Gennaro Gattuso, yet Edmund Hottor can.

Hottor, who currently plays in the Southern Premier Division Central with St Ives Town, has had an illustrious career across the continent, playing in Italy, Portugal and Malta before arriving in England. The former AC Milan youth player moved to England to be with his family just over two years ago and has since been plying his trade in the NonLeague pyramid.

Hottor has enjoyed his time playing in England, comparing it to the Italian football he grew up playing: “It’s been a great experience. I joined St Ives November last year, I had a good run personally playing for them and then joining the club. We came into this season with a goal and a good project. I would say, so far, it’s good and I’ve been enjoying it. I’ve always said I’m enjoying football and I’m enjoying doing it with St Ives.
