Colchester United have signed Kwesi Appiah from Crawley Town.
The forward will be with the U's on a season long loan, subject to the usual ratification from the relevent bodies.
Appiah scored eleven goals in twenty six league appearances last season for Crawley, and has been involved fully in the first month of this current campaign.
The U's have snapped him up on transfer deadline day, and he will be available for Saturday's game against Hartlepool at the JobServe Community Stadium.
Having started his career at Ebbsfleet, the thirty two year old was signed by Crystal Palace in 2012.
Whilst a Palace player, Appiah had a number of loan spells before signing for AFC Wimbledon in the summer of 2017.
He moved the short distance to Crawley in the summer of 2021.
Eligible for both England and Ghana at international level, the lively forward picked the latter and has won seven caps, scoring twice.
At the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations, he scored his first international goal in the Quarter-Final win against Guinea as his side made it to the Final - where they lost on penalties to the Ivory Coast.
