Now Busy Shots Bring In Former Beavers Striker

Aldershot Town have signed striker Nicke Kabamba on loan from SkyBet League One side Portsmouth until the end of the season.

The 24-year-old has recently returned from a month`s loan with League Two side Colchester United, having joined Pompey in January 2017 from Hampton & Richmond Borough.

He scored 40 goals in eighty games for The Beavers, as they won promotion to National League South, and previously also played for Hayes & Yeading United, Uxbridge, Hayes, Burnham and Hemel Hempstead Town.

Shots manager Gary Waddock told press officer Steve Gibbs: “I’ve monitored Nicke for quick some time and I’m extremely pleased that we’ve been able to get him on board.

“When we played against Hampton in a pre-season friendly he was an absolute handful. He got himself a good move to Portsmouth, and has played in the Football League – he’s a very good player and gives us competition up front.

“He’s quick, strong, powerful and good in the air, and he gives us a different option to the strikers that we currently have at the Club. We wanted to bring another centre-forward in, and goals win games.”

This deal is the second to be funded by the new `500 Club` initiative, which invites supporters to contribute to Waddock's playing budget with a 'money-back-and-more' guarantee if Aldershot win promotion to the Football League this season.

Kabamba is available as The Shots face Dover Athletic tomorrow.
