SOLIHULL Moors have confirmed the return of popular defender Alex Whitmore after the player performed a transfer U-turn.
Whitmore initially headed a list of six players to depart Moors following the conclusion of the 2025/26 campaign due to personal reasons.
However, the centre-back has now agreed to return to Damson Park.
The 30-year-old has made more than 150 appearances for Moors and featured for the club at Wembley in the Promotion Final and FA Trophy final in the 2023/24 campaign.
Whitmore said: “I’m delighted to be back.
“For a bit of context, it was well documented that I left for personal reasons, but after a summer speaking with the people closest to me and having an incredible family and such a supportive wife, they helped me understand I needed to enjoy my football and this club is the best place for me to do that.
“I had the most enjoyable time in my career here and I’m really happy that I get the chance to continue to do that.
“Let’s hope we can have a successful season together and I look forward to seeing everyone and the fans that were so supportive.”
Moors boss, Chris Millington added: “I couldn’t be happier than to be bringing Whits back to his spiritual home.
“He’s such a strong centre half for our level and having a player so committed to Moors at the heart of our defence is huge.
“Special thanks has to go out to the chairman for helping make this happen.
“Whits is a very important signing for us.”
Whitmore played every single minute of the 2025/26 National League campaign for Moors.
