Mitchell Dickenson has left Hythe Town to join Hemel Hempstead.

His move to the National League South club follows months of speculation after another good season at club level as well as international recognition.

Dickenson, the former Gillingham defender, played for an FA Representative XI in April before making his England C debut earlier this month.

Hythe will receive compensation for Dickenson, as he's only 22, with the defender set to play against Maidstone, Dartford and Tonbridge this season.
