We are pleased to make another addition to the squad for the 2026/27 season with the signing of Joao Silva from Guiseley

The 22 Year Old, who has won five caps for Sao Tome and Principe joins after making 40 appearances at Nethermoor last season, having previously been with Farsley Celtic.

Joao said ”I’m looking forward to meeting all my team mates and playing on this pitch”

Cleggy said on his new recruit, ”He impressed for Guiseley against us last year and it was one of the most impressive wing performances I’ve seen in a while. We didn’t think he’d become available because we knew he was under contract at Guiseley. But then we got wind he was coming over to Manchester  this summer, and travel was a problem for him, so we were straight in on it and we got the deal done very early, He’s going to be very exciting, and we’re delighted to have him in.”
