The club are delighted to announce the signing of 21-year-old midfielder Moussa Sanoh on a two-year contract from July 1 with the option of an extra year.
The Dutchman joins after his contract with Dutch second division side RKC Waalwijk expired at the end of the 2016/17 campaign.
Able to play on either flank and up front as a striker, Sanoh made 26 appearances in the Juliper League last season, scoring five goals.
Before his time with RKC Waalwijk, the midfielder spent two years with PSV Eindhoven, making several appearances for both their under-19 and reserve team.
Director of Football Selim Gaygusuz said: “We’re delighted to bring Moussa to the club. We have been tracking him for a while now and myself, Harry and Warren believe he’s someone who has real talent and potential.
“He’s from the same league as Enzio (Boldewijn) who we brought in last year, and as we know Enzio made a real impact with us and became a real favourite with our fans.
“Hopefully Moussa can come into the club and have the same impact.”
Supporters can watch the midfielder’s first interview on the iFollow service here later this evening.
Wish him well and hopefully he shows similar promise to Enzio, sounds an exciting prospect, albeit not as yet a prolific goalscorer.
I always thought Enzio was playing well mid season and would be a potential outlet when we were in trouble but DD kept taking him off, which to me seemed to knock his confidence and he had a spell later in the season were he just didnt have much spark, but stayed on the whole game! Hopefully HK will instil confidence and substitute based on the match and not on having to keep bigger names or favourites on the field (Kaby seemed to be the scapegoat at the end of the season)
Welcome to Moussa, hopefully he should settle in fairly easily as he'll have Enzio there with him, I wonder who actually spotted him and got him talking to CTFC
Welcome to Moussa. As always, I hope you have a long and successful stay at Crawley (spill cocker changes his name to Moussaka...Maybe that will egg [plant] him on).

Lets wait and see but if he is Enzio league std hardly will set our league alight. And once again i ask who is running the club? Is Harry just the puppet? Is Harry even aware of whats going on?
He looks handy on his you tube clips but Enzio looked pretty leathal as well.
One thing i will say he is the same height as Kaby. Throw in Cox Bullman and Smith and we are a teM of midgets. We nees some phyicality in the middle. It was obvious last season and hasnt been corrected
an odd signing we have more wingers than we need so i fully expect 1 or 2 to go
Might be the chance to move Cox into a more influential midfield/attacker role, he was too often isolated & ineffective out wide.
Hold on! Get a right winger so we can move a left winger. The reason our wingers were isolated was because our central midfielders couldn't get close enough to them. Jim Baker
The OP states that he can play on either flank... However, I was really responding to the point about a surplus of wingers and moving some on. I accept your wisdom about why our wide men were isolated, but another key factor was that they rarely could put an early ball in and often had no alternative but to hold play up... because we never had runners in or around the area for them to pick out.
I'm just pointing out that an excess of wingers gives us options to address this issue. Certainly Cox & arguably Enzio might be more productive in an inside forward role, lord knows we complained enough last season about not having enough bodies in there.
