VCD manager Paul Foley has been doing yet more shrewd business by snapping up Callum O'Shea from Ryman Premier side Cray Wanderers.

O'Shea joined the Bromley based club from Charlton Athletic in 2009 and is a former Eire U15/U16 international.

He will be joining up with fellow Eire youth player Kane Rice at VCD who also represented his country from U14 to U17.

The pacy right winger served a two year scholarship with Charlton Athletic joining from South East London rivals Millwall FC before joining Cray Wanderers in 2009 breaking into the first team squad in quick time.

Nineteen year old O'Shea has also appeared this season for Ryman North side Maldon Town and Kent League side Erith Town on loan from Cray.

Manager Paul Foley told www.vcd-athletic.co.uk today, 'At this time of year you always get suspensions and injuries as the games mount up and with Tom Bradshaw not yet fit following a hamstring injury sustained against Ashford Town we wanted to get a wide player in.

Callum was very keen to join up with us as he had heard good things about how we do things at VCD and we are delighted to have him on board.

He can play in a few positions which is an attribute we always look for in a player and he will go into the squad for Saturday's game at home to Romford.

He just wants to get settled and play as regularly as he can and he feels we can provide that stability and hopefully see him progress as our other young players are doing.'

O'Shea also has Level One and Level Two FA Coaching badges completed during his time with Charlton Athletic.
