We are delighted to announce the signing of central defender Cheick Diabate, subject to clearance.
Diabate, 23, who was most recently signed with English League One side Exeter City and also spent time on loan at Bradford City, joins on a one-year deal.
He trained with his new team-mates for the first time on Monday morning and is excited to meet the supporters.
Diabate said: “I’m really excited to get going and be part of this team.
“I spoke to the gaffer a few times and it sounded like an exciting place to be. This is a good club to be at – and I realised that after my first hour in the door.
“I’m looking forward to the games starting and getting to know my team-mates better. All I’m thinking about is getting out there and helping the team.”
Diabate added: “I’m a defensive player and like to defend my box. I like front-foot defending too and I’m comfortable on the ball.”
