Sutton United Football Club is delighted to confirm the signing of Danny Cashman from League Two side Crawley Town.
The forward becomes the U’s final signing of the 2025/26 campaign, putting pen to paper on a loan deal until the end of the season ahead of the National League’s registration deadline, and reunites with Chris Agutter after linking up at Worthing last term.
Hailing from Crawley, Cashman joined Brighton & Hove Albion at the age of 12 following a successful trial, and went on to spend almost a decade at the AMEX, rising through the ranks to captain the Under-18s ahead of a permanent departure by mutual consent, opting instead to join Coventry City in 2021.
Two years in the Midlands saw him enjoy successful loan spells at Rochdale, Walsall and Altrincham, before returning to Sussex in order to join Worthing, a place where he soon began to enjoy his best form.
The 25-year old scored 28 goals in 79 games for the Rebels, notably firing Agutter’s side to a record points tally last term as well as to the National League South play-off final the year before, where they were defeated by a Braintree Town team which included Jack Sims.
His form in the sixth tier led to much interest last summer, and saw him make the jump up two divisions to join hometown club Crawley, where he has featured five times; injury problem limiting him to just a handful of appearances.
Nonetheless, he had established himself as one of the most talented players in all of non-league while at Worthing, with the lure of a reunion with his former boss enough to convince him to join the U’s ahead of the final seven game of the season.
Internationally, he has also represented England at Under-16 and Under-17 level.
After securing his final signing of the season, Agutter said:
“Delighted to have the opportunity to work with Cash again, we’ve already had some great times together at a previous club and I look forward to plenty more whilst at Sutton United.
An incredibly talented footballer who will add even more goals, assists, and hard running to this Sutton United team – the group has evolved so much over the past few months, and Danny’s addition is another massive step in the right direction.”
He will wear the number 52 during the remainder of the campaign.
Welcome to Sutton, Danny!
