CRAWLEY striker Charles Ademeno has joined Grimsby, signing a two year contract with the Mariners. Ademeno, who is of Nigerian descent, spent a number of years at Southend, where he failed to establish himself in the first team. After a number of loan spells at non-league clubs, he joined Crawley at the start of last season, bagging 11 goals in 32 games.

The 21-year-old will become the seventh summer signing at Blundell Park.

Neil Woods told the Grimsby Telegraph: "I'm very pleased. We've tracked Charles for quite a while. We were very close at the end of last season to getting him here.

"He has a good goalscoring record, is a very intelligent player and very quick. With what we already have, Charles gives us an added option of pace in behind defences.

"He's not the complete package yet but he knows that and is keen to learn. Being an ex-striker I understand the position and have big expectations."
