Iontton, who plays as a central midfielder, joins from King`s Lynn Town – relegated from the National League - while defender Fernandez joins from SkyBet League Two side Stevenage, where Iontton also started his career.
Iontton,
21, joined the Linnets in November 2021 after being released by Stevenage.
He
joined Stevenage at the age of 10 and progressed through the club’s youth
academy.
He
signed his first professional contract in July 2018 and was named as League Two
Apprentice of the Year for the 2018/19 season.
He
has National League South experience having joined Braintree Town on a
one-month loan in February 2020. He made 4 appearances for the Iron during his
loan spell.
He
made 4 appearances for Stevenage during the 2020/21 season, before being
released by the club in May 2021, making a total of 25 appearances in his
senior carer at Broadhall Way, scoring just the once.
Twenty-year-old
Fernandez (pictured) spent last season on loan at King`s Lynn.
He
began his career in the Stevenage youth system, making his first appearance in
the EFL Cup against Southend United in 2019...
The
centre-back joined Stevenage at the age of 13, progressing through the club's
youth system.
He
went on to make 5 first team appearances for the club.
As
well as King’s Lynn, Fernandez also had a loan spell with Oxford City.
Manager
Gary McCann told https://www.hamptonfc.net:
“It’s great to get both Luis and Arthur over the line.
"Both
started with Stevenage, and both played in the National League with King`s Lynn
last season. The fact that they know each other well compliments their
footballing abilities.
"They
are both young, hungry to play regularly, and want to achieve success with us.
"We’d
like to thank Mass Orsi-Dadomo and his brother Danilo for their efforts in
getting this deal over the line.
"It’s
further proof that we’ve got a good reputation of doing things right here at
this football club, and that can only help us going forward."
McCann
is also delighted to sign striker Tommy Wood.
The
23-year-old joins the Beavers having spent last season at fellow National
League side Tonbridge Angels, where he scored 12 league goals.
“Tommy
had a difficult start to his time with Tonbridge but made the adjustments and
scored 13 in 15 at the end of the season to make him one of the form strikers
in the division,” said McCann. “He is a much sought-after number 9, who had
other options, but he has chosen us, and we are very pleased he has.”
The
23-year-old London-born striker Wood, moved to Tonbridge on a more permanent
basis in October 2020.
His
previous stay at Tonbridge was a short one - a month’s loan from AFC Wimbledon
starting 21st February 2020 - but he certainly made quite an impact with 3
goals in 3 appearances before the season was brought to a sudden end due to the
Covid-19 Pandemic.
After
starting his career with Burnley, he moved to AFC Wimbledon in May 2018 after
failing to make the senior side at Turf Moor, although he did have loan spells
with Barnoldswick Town and Ossett Albion.
He
played twice for the Dons` first team as well as being loaned out to Slough
Town, Burgess Hill Town, Leatherhead twice and then Angels.
