Myles Anderson leaves Exeter City to join AC Monza

Myles Anderson has departed Exeter City to join Italian fourth-tier side AC Monza.

The 23-year-old, who joined Exeter from Blackburn Rovers in January, started his senior career in Scotland with Aberdeen.

Exeter manager Paul Tisdale told the club's official website: "We are disappointed as a club to see Myles leave, but we're delighted for him as a person that he has been given the opportunity to play football on the continent and experience a new culture and way of life.

"I can't think of many players that have come through the Cat & Fiddle in the past few years that have been more dedicated to improving themselves as Myles. He has developed immensely since joining us in January and he leaves us a better player, both technically and physically.

"It is disappointing to lose a player who ordinarily we would have been keen to tie down on a longer-term deal, but as a club we have to accept our financial situation and the limitations that brings."

Monza finished fifth in their domestic league last season.
