After discussions between the player and the club, Eastleigh have allowed him to leave for a move closer to home.

 

Hare made 74 appearances for the Spitfires across two spells at the club, including 24 games so far this season where he scored one goal and registered five assists.

 

The 27-year-old had re-joined Eastleigh in June 2021 following his release by Bristol Rovers.

 

He returned to the Spitfires having spent an impressive season in Hampshire in 2018/19 which earned him his move to Rovers in the first place.

 

He joined Eastleigh in June 2018 from Maidstone United and made his debut for the Spitfires on the opening day of the season against Solihull Moors and was a mainstay for the remainder of the campaign, racking up 45 appearances in all competitions.

 

His performances also earn himself a place in the National League 2018/19 team of the season.

 

Born in Canterbury, he joined the academy of his most local League side Gillingham, where he rose through the ranks and signed his first professional contract in 2012.

 

In the 2014/15 season he returned on loan to Eastbourne Borough, where he had been two years prior, but also made three first team appearances for the Gills - two in League One and one in the League Cup.

 

He eventually moved permanently to Eastbourne in 2016, playing a season before moving on to Maidstone, where he enjoyed a second season of frequent football, prior to his move up to Eastleigh.

 

He enjoyed a fine start to life in the blue and white quarters but after an ACL injury, he struggled to break back into the team.
