Paul Carden has added further options to his AFC Telford United attack with the capture of experienced winger Marcus Marshall.

London-born Marshall has switched to the New Bucks Head from step three outfit Matlock Town.

The 32-year-old wideman, who came through the youth ranks at Blackburn over a decade ago, has enjoyed a lengthy career and previously played in the Football League with Rotherham, Bury and Morecambe.

Marshall's short-term deal until the end of the season has been completed in time for the winger to feature in Telford's crunch National League North clash at Guiseley tonight.

Before Matlock, the experienced Marshall turned out for Basford, Alfreton, Boston, Grimsby and Lincoln.

Telford have played wingers Byron Moore and Devarn Green, who have both brought in by Carden in recent months, although former Football League star Moore missed Saturday's win over Spennymoor due to a fitness concern.
