Pearson Departs SO50

Eastleigh Football Club have today confirmed that midfielder Sam Pearson has had his contract terminated by mutual consent, bringing an end to his time with the Spitfires.

Pearson's departure comes after a season in which he made a solid contribution to the club's campaign. During the 2025/26 season, the midfielder featured 15 times for Eastleigh, demonstrating his commitment to the club's cause and scoring on two occasions during his appearances in the red shirt.

Loan Move to Dorking

As the season progressed, Pearson joined Dorking Wanderers on loan in March, allowing him to gain additional playing time and experience. This loan arrangement ultimately led to the mutual decision to terminate his contract with Eastleigh.

Club's Gratitude

Eastleigh Football Club has been keen to place on record their appreciation for Pearson's efforts during his time at the club. The Spitfires have wished him well as he embarks on the next chapter of his football career.

The departure is part of the natural evolution of a football club's squad, with players moving on to pursue fresh challenges and opportunities elsewhere. Eastleigh will now look forward to building on the foundations laid during the 2025/26 campaign.
