The 24-year-old centre forward was Joe Lea and Pat Suraci’s eighth summer signing and joins us from the Magpies where he spent the previous three seasons.

In the early stages of his footballing career, Gwengwe played for the likes of Worthing, Blackfield & Langley and Andover Town and saw success with sides rising through the non-league pyramid.

For the 2021/22 campaign, Gwengwe made the move to AFC Totton and scored 15 goals in 29 appearances in all competitions.

Following a strong season with the Stags, the striker signed for Dorchester and within his first season, he secured the club’s golden boot after finding the back of the net on 13 occasions.

Gwengwe went on to score 17 goals the following season which led to several clubs being interested in his signature for the start of the 2024/25 campaign, but he re-signed on at the Avenue.

After scoring on ten occasions last season for Dorchester, Gwengwe has now decided it’s time to make the step up and sign for Poole for the 2025/26 campaign and will wear the number nine shirt for the upcoming season.
