Newport County to Rotherham United

Newport County Success
Evans joined Newport County in August 2022 and quickly established himself as a key player for the club. On August 24, 2022, he scored his first goal for Newport in their 3-2 EFL Cup second-round win against Portsmouth.
Rotherham United Appointment
Despite Newport County's mixed start to the season, Evans' performances have not gone unnoticed. On January 28, 2024, Rotherham United announced the signing of Evans for an undisclosed fee. The move marks a significant step up for the Northern Irishman, who will now play in the EFL Championship.
