We are delighted to announce the signing of experienced centre half Yann Songo’o.

The 34-Year-Old has over 400 career appearances to his name.

Yann, who’s father Jacques played as a goalkeeper for Cameroon in the 1994 World Cup, started his career in Spain at Real Zaragoza before starting his career at CB Sabadell before a move to the USA saw him play for Kansas City and Orlando City.

His big break came when he moved to the UK with Blackburn Rovers, after a loan move to Ross County he then moved to Plymouth Argyle where he became a fans favourite making 121 appearances.

Spells at Scunthorpe United and Bradford City followed before two spells at Morecambe followed, where he became a club legend making 109 apperances and staying when loyal even when the club went through financial difficulty.

Following relegation from the National League Songo’o was released and joins the Tigers for this coming season

On securing his signature, manager Michael Clegg said ”He’s a great signing for us, he’s had great experience in the Football League and won many supporter awards along the way, he’s show great desire to join the club and to want to play every minute for us.  We wanted a touch more experience and it will come in handy and we have that spine of it now with Dan Gardner, Tom Walker and Jack Redshaw and it’s what we need now with the young squad that we have.”
