Boss Dave Stringer has also moved to add new faces to the squad ahead of the pre-season campaign after seeing George Washbourne and Rhys Thompson depart.

Striker Mitchell Piggon joins from Rugby Town, while former Coalille Town, Shepshed Dynamo and Grantham midfielder Lee Miveld has also made the switch.

Other new faces at The Scholars Ground include ex-Nuneaton Griff midfielder Josh Ruff and former Rugby Town man Matthias Curley.
