The 23-year-old
former Kettering Town forward should prove a useful addition to the Stags side
for the coming campaign.
Obeng
netted 25 goals for the University side last term and whilst with the Poppies,
where he came through the youth and under-21 ranks, he made 19 senior appearances
and scored 5 goals.
On
Signing Obeng, manager Louis Langdown told https://www.afctotton.com: “Silvano
was part of Solent’s lethal strike force for the past few seasons, and he’s
always been one I’ve come away from watching thinking I’d like him on our side.
His presence and physicality in the forward line should help our attacking
players break from deeper. He has good hold up play and is keen to play at the
Testwood Park. He’s a likeable character and will fit in well with the group we
are building.”
Langdown
has also re-signed Ollie Bradley.
The
bustling forward, who joined from another Wessex side, AFC Fawley, last season,
showed the Totton fans that he has the ability to be a decent player at this
level.
Bradley
is not the finished article by any means, but the lad has the ability to
improve further.
Bradley
said: “I’ve enjoyed the training and coaching and felt I was getting fitter
each week. It’s perfect for me being close to home. I scored a few and managed
a few assists last season coming into a team of new lads, so hoping I can add
more now I know the players better”. |
