Woking FC has officially announced the signing of forward John Marquis, who has joined the club on a one-year contract. The 34-year-old striker arrives at Woking after his previous contract with Shrewsbury Town came to an end, marking a new chapter in his career.
During his time with Shrewsbury, Marquis made a significant impact, netting 18 goals in 86 appearances across both League One and League Two. His ability to find the back of the net has been a hallmark of his career, and Woking will be hoping he can replicate that success in the National League.
Marquis boasts an impressive resume, having played over 500 matches in the English Football League (EFL) throughout his career. His goal-scoring prowess is evident, with a total of 171 goals scored for various clubs, including notable stints at Millwall, Portsmouth, Doncaster Rovers, and Bristol Rovers. This wealth of experience will be invaluable as Woking aims to strengthen their squad for the upcoming season.
The addition of Marquis marks Woking's 13th signing during the summer transfer window, as the club looks to bolster its roster ahead of the new campaign. With his extensive experience and proven track record, Marquis is expected to play a crucial role in Woking's offensive lineup.
As the National League approaches, Woking fans will be eager to see how Marquis integrates into the team and contributes to their aspirations for the season. His signing not only adds depth to the squad but also brings a wealth of knowledge that could benefit younger players within the team.
With the transfer window still open, Woking's management will be keen to continue enhancing the squad, but the arrival of Marquis is certainly a positive step forward as they prepare for the challenges ahead in the National League.
