League One promotion chasers Shrewsbury Town have signed highly-regarded Wealdstone winger Abobaker Eisa for an undisclosed fee.
Eisa had been in fantastic form for the National League South side, scoring 12 goals including a superb solo effort on Saturday against Weston-super-Mare in what turned out to be his final game for the club.
He joins his brother in the EFL, with Mohamed Eisa having made a bright start to his career with Cheltenham Town since joining the League Two club last summer.
Abobaker Eisa had caught Wealdstone's eye last season when he was a prolific scorer for Southern League neighbours Uxbridge.
"I'm very delighted to be here", Eisa told ShrewsWeb. "It's a huge club and it looks like they are very ambitious. From playing in the Conference South last Saturday to now being here is a really huge move for me.
"I've been working for this moment for a very long time. I've always wanted to be a pro footballer and I try every single day, so I'm delighted that it's finally come to fruition.
"I feel like I'm ready. Obviously you have to become fitter and a bit stronger, but I'm capable of working hard and I know that the manager here likes work ethic, so I'm going to do that and I will knuckle down and try to get into the team."
Sheffield United winger Nathan Thomas has also joined the club, on a loan deal until the end of the season, while striker Louis Dodds has left by mutual consent.
