Manager Gary Johnson has bolstered his squad by securing the signing of former Plymouth Argyle centre-back Tomlinson and ex-Crystal Palace striker Andrews.
Tomlinson,
20, made 7 first-team outings for Devon rivals Plymouth prior to gained further
senior action with then-Pitching In Southern League Division One South side
Barnstaple and Southern Premier Division South outfit Truro City.
Andrews
enjoyed a prolific spell in the National League with Aldershot Town last time
out, netting 9 goals in 20 appearances before joining League Two side
Colchester United on a similar loan deal.
The
24-year-old started out at Palace and enjoyed loan spells in the Isthmian
League Premier Division with Margate and Kingstonian whilst at Selhurst Park.
Spells
with Whyteleafe and Kingstonian again followed before he joined AFC Wimbledon
in January 2021.
Johnson
told https://torquayunited.com: “Ollie has
great potential, he was about to go somewhere else, but he played in a couple
of our training sessions and we thought he done okay. We think there’s room for
improvement but he’s only a young lad and he’s got what it takes to become a
very, very good player – maybe soon, maybe a little bit later, but it’s good to
have him in the camp.
“Obviously
Corie is a lot older, and a lot more experienced, he’s got great pace and we
play the sort of game that will suit him, because he likes to get in behind. He
has a very good work rate, and he suits our group. He can be that number 10,
and sometimes that number 9, but he does like opening his legs up and sprinting
in behind, and I like that as well”. |
