With pre-season approaching, National League teams have been active in the transfer market, making signings to boost their squads for the next season, but who have been the greatest thus far?
Dean Brennan’s Barnet and York City have had a busy start to the window, signing nearly a full match-day squad between them, while Gateshead has yet to publish their retained list, much alone add a player.
In this article, I will look at ten significant transfers in the National League. To highlight talent spread across the division, each team will be limited to one transfer in this piece.
Starting off the list with an experienced defensive head, Joe Kizzi has jumped from Sutton to Barnet. The centre-back, who can also play right-back has been an ever-present at Sutton in the EFL for several years now but has made the jump to Dean Brennan’s side.
Kizzi is one of seven signings made by Barnet this summer, but he stood out to me as a player who will add leadership and promotion experience, which are two crucial factors in terms of competing in this division.
The Bees paid a fee to bring him in on a two-year deal but everything points to this deal being a really smart bit of business.
