The 24-year-old right-back came through the ranks at Arsenal and Colchester United’s academies before joining Southend United in 2018, making six senior appearances for the Shrimpers, while taking in loan spells with Harlow Town, Dartford, Braintree Town, King’s Lynn Town and Farnborough.
Howard then joined the Wings for his initial spell in DA16 in June 2022, going on to make 23 league appearances for the club last season.
Having left the club in the summer, he joined Bishop Stortford, but now makes a return to Welling to help bolster Danny Bloor’s options on the right of his defence.
