Pigot goes - themaclad - 26-05-2021
Joe Pigott will leave AFC Wimbledon when his contract expires this summer after the striker turned down a new deal with the League One club.
The 27-year-old scored 54 goals in 157 appearances for the Dons after joining from Maidstone United in January 2018.
Pigott netted 20 times in the league in 2020-21 to help the south-west London club preserve their third-tier status.
The former Charlton trainee said it had been the "toughest decision" of his career to leave Plough Lane.
"I've decided that I will be looking for a new challenge," he added in a message posted on the club website.
"It's been an absolute privilege to play for this club as it represents exactly what the game is about - the fans.
"To help play a part in stabilising the club in League One has been a pleasure."
