After seeing his side concede 13 goals in the first five games this season, Hakan Hayrettin has swiftly reacted by bringing in centre-back Marvel Ekpiteta.

The 28-year-old is reunited at the Hamlet with Michael Chambers, alongside whom he has played the previous two seasons at Billericay Town, making almost 100 appearances during that time.

Marvel has a wealth of non-league experience, having appeared for the likes of Chelmsford City, Bishop's Stortford, Ebbsfleet United and Dover Athletic during his career, and could make his debut during our FA Cup tie with Haringey Borough in the First Qualifying Round. He has also played for Newport County, playing for them in the EFL Trophy in 2019.
