Stevenage boss Graham Westley has begun rebuilding for next season by signing Oumare Tounkara and Luke Jones.

Striker Tounkara, 22, has agreed a move to Broadhall Way having spent the final two months of last term with Bristol Rovers, where he scored twice in four starts. Defender Jones, 26, joins from Blue Square Bet Premier champions Mansfield, where he made 32 appearances last season. Westley on Monday released four players - Patrick Agyemang, Andy Iro, Miguel Comminges and Bondz N'Gala - and transfer-listed David Gray, Anthony Grant and Marcus Haber. He has also admitted he expects to lose player of the year James Dunne and top scorer Lucas Akins over the summer.
