DORCHESTER Town have signed promising striker Shaquille Gwengwe from AFC Totton on a one-year contract, subject to FA approval.
Glenn Howes' Magpies are understood to have beaten a number of clubs to the 21-year-old's signature.
In 2018-19, former Worthing forward Gwengwe netted 24 goals in 35 games at Step Five for Andover Town, earning him a move to Blackfield & Langley where he first worked with Howes.
At AFC Totton last season he then bagged seven goals in 28 appearances.
Dorchester assistant boss James Wood said: “We're delighted to announce the signing of Shaq.
"He's an exciting forward player who first played for Glenn at Blackfield & Langley in the Southern Premier League, and whilst there he caught the eye of Brentford and had an extended trial with the professional club.
"Shaq is a young, hungry player who fits our profile superbly and a player we hope to develop further to reach his undoubted potential."
