MARK Collier has further beefed up his Chippenham Town squad options with the acquisition of midfielder Mario Mateus.

Collier, whose side travel to Cinderford Town in the Evo-Stik League Southern Premier Division tomorrow night, have snapped up the wide man who departed divisional rivals Dorchester Town last week.

The 24 Portuguese player scored one goal in 21 appearances for the Magpies, having joined them this summer from Paulton Rovers.

Collier, whose side are second in the table following Saturday's 5-0 win over Cambridge City, said “Mario has been on the radar since playing Dorchester Town in September.

"He is quick, has good technical ability and play wide or off the front man.”
