He told the club's website: "I moved to Southampton last season. I did a year in youth football. I needed to get out and play men's football.
"When the call came in from the gaffer, (the move) made sense. I didn't know much about Accrington until I did a bit of research.
"This move needed to happen at this stage of my career so that I could kick on and develop as a man and a footballer.
"I'm aiming to play as many games as possible and hopefully achieve promotion. I just want to help the team. It's going to be a huge jump, I think it's something that I'm ready for.
"I'm excited for the challenge, whatever games come, I am ready."
