After strengthening his forward line with the signings of Danny Wright and Andrew Nelson, Torquay United manager Gary Johnson has done likewise to bolster his defensive options with the signings of Gary Warren and Fraser Kerr.
Warren, 35, will be a name familiar with the United faithful following his four-match loan spell between January and February 2020 from Exeter City, which left a big impression on all of those who witnessed him in action. Bristol-born Warren, 35, was released by the Grecians in the wake of their play-off final defeat to Northampton Town, and his previous clubs also include Team Bath, Newport County, Inverness Caledonian Thistle and Yeovil Town.
Kerr, 27, started his career with Birmingham City and also has experience of playing in Scotland with Motherwell (for whom he featured in the Scottish Premier League), Cowdenbeath and Stenhousemuir. He returned to England in 2017 to sign for Gateshead before joining his most recent club Hartlepool United in 2019, and he featured in the Pools' 2-1 win over the Gulls at Plainmoor in August last year.
United are poised to announce the signing of an attacking midfield player, who would take their summer signings up to five, within the next 48 hours.
