Southend United have signed former Aldershot winger Louie Soares on a pre-contract agreement, the tenth player manager Paul Sturrock has bought to Roots Hall in just over two weeks!
Louis Sores: Makes it ten Shrimper signings for Sturrock
25-year-old Barbadian international Louise Soares has played in the Shrimpers last two pre-season friendlies and the former Aldershot right winger, he spent four years with the Hampshire club, is the latest player to sign a one-year pre-contract agreement.
Blimey, we better sort this out or there are going to be a lot of disappointed players out there, and a mangement team, but for now, like the other nine, Louie's registration will be lodged with the Football League once the transfer embargo is lifted.
So that's a top ten for Blues boss Paul Sturrock who will soon have a complete team of his men in the squad!
Louis has two caps for Barbados and has scored one goal for them.
