A Portuguese citizen who was born in Angola, Correia has played for the Port up front during pre-season, impressing manager Liam Watson in the friendly games.

The 26-year-old, who moved to England at a young age, is a strong centre forward.

He earned his move to SkyBet League One side Blackpool in January 2017 on the back of scoring 11 goals in 22 games in a second spell with BetVictor Northern Premier League side Radcliffe Borough, having returned from Chorley.

He signed an 18-month contract at Bloomfield Road and whilst at Blackpool, he had loan periods in the National League with Guiseley AFC and York City before securing a move to Barrow AFC last summer.

Watson has also signed promising young winger Connor Woods.

Woods started out at Hallmark Security League side St Helens Town before progressing through the youth set-up at then-NPL side Skelmersdale United.

The 21-year-old moves into senior football for the first time and has caught the eye for Watson’s side during pre-season with a number of creative, energetic performances.
