Sounds like one for the future...but great to hear players say they proactively contacted us because they want to play for the manager...

Moved from a part-time club in Spain to an even more part-time club in Spain!

It's a surprising signing, but I'd imagine Jolley must have seen something in him or he wouldn't have offered him a contract. Wonder what sort of a player he is?

Think we could see some really, really, left-field signings this summer!

was thinking exactly the same.Tercera division is really low level, probably Conference North standard. Just imagine the Fishy meltdown if Slade had signed him!
However in Jolley we trust.
looking at the videos i'm scratching my head even more, coz he looks like another Harry Cardwell, so if one was being very negative you could say we now have 2 young strikers, neither of whom score very many!

Looks like Jolley is trying build something longer term here. That's a positive sign.

Here’s hoping he’s better than our last Spanish sounding Louis (soares / Suarez).

Clearly, we're planning on playing total football. Relying on one or two strikers to score the goals is old hat - we'll have a dozen players with half a dozen each.

Looking at videos hes small but fast and nippy. Could be a on the shoulder poacher type striker as hes 5ft 8.
Not guaranteed a start i guess but could turn out to be a surprising signing.
Only 21 too so further time to develop.

Well onboard Louis

Who knows how he will turn out but I bet we're not paying him much.. Welcome Louis.

By the Jolley comments he may not be seen as a first choice striker..having to prove himself, an opportunity etc etc....might just be a gentle gee up for him but potentially a fringe/ one for future signing as i read it.

Welcome aboard...despite never playing for the club you already virtually match the strike rate of some recent strikers we have had on the books !!

Glory is yours if you want it Louis.
