Wealdstone have boosted their strike power by signing forward Luke Norris on a season-long loan from National League rivals Boreham Wood.

The 33-year-old, who was part of Brentford's academy, scored five goals in 18 league appearances last term.

He has been a proven marksman in the EFL during his career, scoring 18 goals in League One and 76 in League Two, including 10 in 2022-23 at Stevenage when they won promotion and he was the club's player of the season.

"When you combine the fact Luke has great experience above this level, is a goalscorer and a leader, then it's a fantastic signing for us - no question about that," said Wealdstone manager Gary Waddock.
