Ebbsfleet United boss Dennis Kutrieb says his recruitment is almost done after triple signings leave squad in a position of strength

Ebbsfleet manager Dennis Kutrieb says there’s only one more place left in his squad.

The Fleet boss continued his summer signings in the past week by securing former Gillingham defender Luke O’Neill, centre-back Haydn Hollis from Chesterfield and Kidderminster winger Omari Sterling-James.
