National League Signings - Picking Every Teams Best Transfer 2025-2026

Publish Date: 11/08/2025
Fact checked by: James Leeland

The National League looks stronger than ever this season and we have previewed every clubs best signing.

Aldershot Town

Josh Barrett

This is not a signing as he was there last season but I am cheating for the first team! The winger scored 16 goals last season and was linked with a host of EFL clubs but has stayed put at Aldershot.

Altrincham

Keaton Ward

Losing Regan Linney and Alex Newby - who contributed 54 g/a combined last season, was a big blow but as ever, Phil Parkinson has been shrewd in the transfer market. Keaton Ward arrives from Boston - a goalscoring, box to box midfielder. You can read our exclusive interview with him here. 

Boreham Wood

Tom White

After promotion through the National League South playoffs, Boreham Wood have seen a lot of experience leave. The signing of Tom White looks huge - the highly popular 28-year-old leaves Morecambe and brings steel and determination.

Boston United

Liam Waldock

Graham Coughlan had quite the clear out at Boston after pulling off the great escape. While the loss of Ward is a blow, Liam Waldock is a like-for-like replacement - a hard-working, goal scoring midfielder who signs from Alfreton in the National League North.

Brackley

Jack Price

Brackley are playing at this level for the first time in their history so experience is needed. Step forward Jack Price - the 32-year-old is a leader who boasts spells at clubs such as Wolves, Colorado Rapids and Shrewsbury.

Braintree

Tommy Smith

Kyrell Lisbie (Peterborough) and Louie Annesly (Dorking) represent two major losses for a side already up against it in terms of budget. However, The Iron have still made some shrewd signings - most notably Tommy Smith. The 35-year-old centre back arrives from Auckland in New Zealand having previously played for Ipswich and Colchester United.

Carlisle

Regan Linney

No brainer this. Linney scored 37 goals across two seasons for Altrincham, including 23 last campaign. He adds much needed firepower to the Cumbrians front line.

Eastleigh

Nick Townsend

Despite losing goal machine Tyrese Shade to League One side Burton Albion , The Spitfires have had a strong window. Nick Townsend signs from Newport County - a stand out keeper in League Two, he should prove a strong acquisition for Kelvin Davies.

FC Halifax Town

David Kawa

Ryan Galvin, Adam Senior and Jack Evans have all secured a move to the EFL, while Chris Millington has moved on. However, the Shaymen have been active in the window. Kawa is an exciting winger who joins from Aveley.

Forest Green Rovers

Nick Haughton

The attacking midfielder scored 37 goals in his last two National League seasons for a struggling AFC Fylde side so looks a real coup for Robbie Savage's men.

Gateshead

Callum Johnson

Gateshead are a side who could struggle this season. However, the signing of Johnson at right back is a strong one - provided he stays fit.

Hartlepool

Alex Reid

For all the off-the-field issues, The Monkey Hangers have made a few astute signings. Alex Reid joins from Wealdstone after 16 goals last season in a poor side.

Morecambe

N/A

The future of Morecambe is still up in the air, with the Shrimps being suspended until further notice. Hopefully Jason Whittingham sees sense and sells the club so they can continue to exist.

Rochdale

Emmanuel Dieseruvwe

Dieseruvwe scored 39 goals across the last two seasons for Hartlepool, so will be hoping to continue that fine goalscoring form for Dale.

Scunthorpe

Oli Ewing

Promoted back to the National League via the playoffs, Scunny needed star quality through the door.  Step forward Oli Ewing. The 22-year-old creative maestro signs on a free from Leicester City after an exceptional loan at National League North side Buxton last season.

Solihull Moors

Dan Creaney

While there are doubts about manager Matt Taylor, no-one can deny how strong Solihull Moors recruitment has been this campaign. Dan Creaney has been prized away from Tamworth for the first time since 2019 scoring 19 goals last campaign.

Southend United

Slavi Spasov

Southend United have had success in recent seasons from shopping in lower divisions. One player who could turn out to be a shrewd signing is Spasov. The 23-year-old is a strong forward who scored 15 goals for Slough last season and adds an extra dimension to a strong attack.

Sutton United

Liam Vincent

Sutton have had a lot of turn over in this summer, with recruitment focused on signing young talent from leagues below. One such example is Liam Vincent - a 22-year-old signed from Tonbridge Angels, possessing a cultured left foot.

Tamworth

Stefan Mols

The Lambs will be keen to avoid second-season syndrome and have made some smart signings. Spaniard Stefan Mols signs from Curzon Ashton. The midfielder was a key component of Craig Mahon's overachieving side.

Truro City

Harry Kite

Truro shocked many people in winning the National League South title and have been aggressive in the transfer market. Kite is a tremendously talented midfielder signed from Yeovil.

Wealdstone

Nathan Tshikuna

The commanding midfielder moved from Tamworth to Eastleigh - a move that stalled his career. However, with the chance to be a key man at The Stones, the 26-year-old could be a stand out signing.

Woking

Tim Akinola

The Cardinals have had a very strong summer window, retaining key players and signing exciting talent. Akinola is an energetic box-to-box midfielder signed from Gateshead bringing a new dimension to the midfield.

Yeovil

Jed Ward

The signing of Ward on loan from Bristol Rovers looks a real coup. At 22, the young keeper is one of the best in the league and would be playing a division up but for The Gas' reluctance to send him to a divisional rival.

York City

Alex Newby

There were so many to choose from for the Minstermen. However, creative lynchpin Newby signs from Altrincham after a stellar season. His set piece delivery and ability in the pockets of space will be crucial to breaking down low blocks.
