Aldershot Town will kick off their National League campaign against Boston United this weekend, who have bolstered their attack with the loan return of Norwich City striker Ken Aboh. The 21-year-old rejoins the Pilgrims until January after making 23 appearances last season before a hamstring injury cut his campaign short.
What happened in Aboh's last loan spell?
Aboh initially joined Boston United on an emergency month-long loan in November 2025 before extending his stay for the rest of the season. He scored once under manager Paul Hurst, netting in his first game in charge against Halifax Town. The striker wore the number 11 shirt last season and will don it again as Boston prepare to face Aldershot Town at the Jakemans Community Stadium.
Why is this move significant for Aldershot Town?
Aldershot Town will face a familiar opponent in Aboh, who has experience in the National League and a proven track record at development level for Norwich City. The Shots will need to be wary of his pace and finishing ability as they look to start their season on a high. Next fixture: vs Tamworth (away, 2027-02-13) (18th in the table).
What's next for Aboh and Boston United?
The move is subject to final approval from the Football Association and National League. Aboh's return to Boston United comes after a mixed loan spell at Stevenage and Colchester United, where he struggled for regular game time. Norwich City are expected to make further moves in the transfer market, with reports suggesting they are looking to add another teenage striker to their development setup.
