The most fascinating signing is that of centre-half Abdou Diakhate (pictured).

 

The 24-year-old 6`4” Senegalese defender has recently been on loan at Belgian club Lokeren from Italian Serie A side Parma.

 

Originally with Fiorentina, he was sold to Parma as a 20-year-old for a fee believed to be around €400,000 with the Viola receiving a percentage of any future fees.

 

Joining from Southern League Premier Division South side Farnborough is midfielder or centre-back Charlie Ten-Grotenhuis.

 

The 22-year-old started out in Farnborough`s academy before joining Hampton & Richmond Borough in 2016.

 

His form impressed SkyBet League One side Bristol Rovers, who signed him in July 2017.

 

Whilst on the Gas`s books he had loans out at Gloucester City, Paulton Rovers and Gosport Borough before being released by Rovers at the end of the 2017/18 season, joining Vanarama National League South club Hungerford Town in July 2018.

 

He returned to Farnborough in October 2019.

 

Gedeon Okito joins from league rivals Banbury United, for whom he made 18 appearances this season.

 

The 22-year-old left back is a product of the MK Dons academy, captaining their under-18 side.

 

He spent four seasons with current Spartan South Midlands League Premier Division outfit Dunstable Town before joining Banbury in the summer of 2019.

 

Midfielder Mo Sebbeh-Njie returns for a second spell at The DCS Stadium.

 

Originally joined Stratford in January 2019 from Redditch United.

 

The 21-year-old was previously with National League North side Kettering Town and returns to Stratford from another brief spell at Latimer Park.
