Aberystwyth bolster squad with trio

Aberystwyth Town have announced the triple-signing of striker Shama Bako, winger Amin Ahmed and midfielder Louis Gerrard.

Bako, 20, most recently featured for 1. FC Phönix Lübeck in Germany, along with playing for Northampton Town and Birmingham City at youth level.

The striker also has experience at international level, having earned a call-up to the Zimbabwe U23 side.

Ethiopian winger Amin Ahmed, 22, signs from Macclesfield Town, after a number of trials with Cymru Premier clubs, reportedly including The New Saints and Cefn Druids.

Much like Bako, Ahmed has been called up to the international side, where he is set to feature in Ethiopia’s Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Niger this month.

Cardiff-born Midfielder Gerrard has had spells in the Cymru Leagues with Taffs Well, Caerau Ely and Barry Town.

The 28 year-old has also played for Pontypridd and most recently Goytre United.

During his time at the University of South Wales, Gerrard represented Wales at university level.

The trio join Argentinian midfielder Matias Etchegoyen in signing for the Seasiders on deadline day.

Gavin Allen’s side currently sit eighth in the Cymru Premier table, with a trip to face Cardiff Metropolitan University on November 13.
