Merged.

Impressive youth pedigree. We seem to have gone from signing Devon League players to America, Gibraltar, Paraguay and Australia within a few months. Certainly more exciting!

Well Done to Nicho for getting this done so soon. Not quite the experienced centre half we hoped for, but at least we now have 3 on the books for the upcoming season. Nicho mentioned on social media earlier that he was working hard to secure some more additions, so expect possibly a couple more after the weekend!

Fingers crossed for 3 points tomorrow :scarf:

On the face of it this looks like a excellent signing. Not sure where Nicho has seen and judged him but he has excellent pedigree. Excited to see what he can do!

I'm sure player fund contributions have assisted with this signing :-D

Nico says 'he comes very highly rated from trusted sources'. He will play for us on non-contract terms to start so Nico can have a good look at him before offering him a contract. Good management even though it may be enforced upon him.

Seen there playing with Coulthurst (sp?). Some link or mere coincidence?

What I think will be a typical Nicho signing. Young, hungry, room for improvement, potential for a future six-figure sale. The best sort of signing you can hope for at this level besides the 30 year-old experienced head.
Great news - well done to all involved (and thanks to Nicho's and Robbie's trusted contacts!)

I am sure this will prove popular with those who have Australian flags to wave in the crowd! An athlete who will have more than enough for this level. Melbourne Victory are in the top tier in Australia and it means he has also had some Asian Championship league experience as well if only for 16 minutes. Melbourne are run by Kevin Muscat whose hardman antics as a player continue as a manager. Nico, I would imagine would be a very welcome alternative.
