Lewes manager Tony Russell has signed another of his former players from Cray Wanders, Freddie Parker for the upcoming season.
The 20-year-old impressed for Cray last season including scoring eight goals in 14 games, before their campaign was curtailed.
The midfielder started his career at Millwall and has also had a brief spell with Crystal Palace before returning to Cray Wanderers where he was named Young Player of the Year in 2019.

Parker has scored 30 goals in just over 75 games in the Isthmian League.
But Russell was delighted to have secured the services.
He said: “Freddie is one of the best young players in Non-League football for me.
“He played 14 games last season and still scored 8 times from midfield!
“I gave him his debut at 16 and every year from that point he has just got better and better so I can’t wait to continue shaping his football journey.
“If he continues to learn and grow as a person and a player he is destined for great things I’m sure of it”
Rooks chairman Stuart Fuller is looking forward to seeing Parker donning the Red and Black.
He said: “I saw Freddie play a couple of times last season and was impressed with his strength and link up play.
“He is a great all-round player and it is hard to believe he is still only 20.”
