Sheppey United sign former AFC Greenwich Borough and Margate striker Oghosa Williams

Sheppey United have added to their attacking options with the signing of a striker who hit 40 goals last season.

Oghosa Williams enjoyed a prolific spell with AFC Greenwich Borough last season as they won the Southern Counties East Division 1 title.

Those goals attracted the attention from clubs higher up the non-league pyramid.

The former Welling United academy forward initially joined Isthmian Premier side Whitehawk in the summer before moving to Margate in August.

He recently switched to Larkfield & New Hythe, making three appearances and getting on the scoresheet in Saturday's 2-1 win over Southern Counties East Premier Division leaders Fisher.

Williams now heads to Holm Park, where he will add much-needed attacking options to a team that has been heavily reliant on Mikey Salako.

Sheppey joint-manager Ian Batten said: “Oghosa is a player we’ve tracked closely, and his record speaks for itself.

“He’s sharp, hungry, and knows exactly where the back of the net is. He’s going to give defenders nightmares, and we are delighted to welcome him to Sheppey."

In a club statement welcoming him to Sheppey, the club added: “The striker arrives at Holm Park following a sensational campaign in the non-league pyramid, bringing an eye for goal, electric pace, and sharp movement in the final third straight to the Ites' frontline.

“His staggering goalscoring form - netting 40 goals overall and securing individual accolades - proved his status as one of the most feared young attackers outside the professional leagues.”

Williams could feature on Wednesday night for Sheppey in their match away against Sevenoaks Town in the Kent Senior Cup.
