Olumuyiwa (pictured) is known to the Farnborough faithful from a month’s loan spell back in August 2019 where he made a handful of appearances.

 

The 24-year-old had signed for the Stags in May 2021 from National League South side Weymouth, having joined the Terras from Blackfield & Langley in June 2019.

 

He moved to the Terras having helped the Hampshire side gain promotion to the Southern Premier Division South in 2018/19.

 

He had trials with several professional clubs, including Southend United, Charlton Athletic and Aston Villa without success, and then played third tier football in America in the National Premier Soccer League with New Orleans Jesters and went defeated all season and won the championship in 2017.

 

He studied sport studies at Southampton Solent University and played for Team Solent in the Wessex League before signing for Blackfield & Langley in 2018.

 

Kasimu is a 24-year-old striker who joined the Stags in May 2020 from then-Southern Premier Division South neighbours Blackfield & Langley.

 

He joined the Watersides from Wessex League side Team Solent.

 

He scored 14 goals in 2018/19 and 8 in 23 games in 2019/20 before it came to a premature end and was top scorer again in 2021/22.

 

Manager Spencer Day told the club’s website: “Ade, I really wanted him last year. A player that's played in the National League with Weymouth. Can play centre-half, can play right-back.

 

“He's been with us before so the fans, although he was only with us briefly, will be really excited to see him back. Another really strong addition to our backline, so very excited to get him over the line as well.

 

"I've been after Hisham for three years! He scored 30-odd goals at Step 4 and played at Step 3. Very quick and exciting player.

 

"He can play out wide, can play through the centre and has a great attitude. We're really looking forward to developing him with the rest of a very exciting bunch, so very pleased to get him over the line".
