Taunton-born defender Charlie Clough has joined League Two promotion-chasers Barnet from Forest Green Rovers for an undisclosed fee.
The 26-year-old, who began his career with Bristol Rovers, will now be playing in the Football League for the first time since making the last of his three appearances for the Pirates in 2011.

Since then, he has played for Bath City, Dorchester Town, Sutton United and Forest Green, for whom he played 90 times in all competitions and earned the supporters’ player of the year award last season.
Clough could make his debut for his new side in their long trip to Carlisle on Saturday and will be hoping to aid the Bees in their bid for a play-off place in the fourth tier.
Also a big thank you to @FGRFC_Official it has been a pleasure the last 2 years with lots of good memories and met some great people👍🏻⚽️

Forest Green manager Mark Cooper said: "As a player, Cloughy has improved technically during his time at Forest Green Rovers and we wish him all the best."
