June is here and that usually means we’re about to see some big business done - and last week was quite the warm up.

The new campaign is still more than two months away but don’t think that’s put some clubs off after going into transfer overdrive.

Dagenham landed a treble, and they weren’t even the biggest deal makers. Oscar Rutherford sings from Eastleigh on a free transfer, with Trent Rendall and striker Josh Umerah also on board.

Woking also went on an even bigger transfer blitz. Harry Beautyman brings title winning experience after leaving Sutton United, with Cian Harries crossing the border from Aldershot Town.

Barnet’s Dale Gorman, Timi Odusina and Jacob Jones also put pen to paper.

Chester announced the arrival of 6"3 midfielder Jack Bainbridge from Marine while Australian Reagan Ogle is Oldham’s first close season capture, pictured.

Sutton United hope the signing of Aveley’s exciting Siju Odelusi can add a new dimension to their team.

Chesham United have been busy. The club have signed Ben Goode, Samson Esan and Mitchell Weiss ahead of their first season in National League South.

Last weekend Worthing suffered some damaging exits.

They look to fill the void with Hasting’s Ollie Black, goalkeeper Chris Haigh and versatile midfielder Tyrese Owen softening the blow.

The pain was inflicted by York City who took Ollie Pearce and Joe Felix alongside goalkeeper Harrison Male and Maidenhead's Ashley Nathaniel-George.

Tyrese Sinclair now arrives at the Minstermen from York City.

Hemel Hempstead have announced the arrival of midfielder Michael Phillips. Jordy Mongoy will also play for the Tudors next term.

Scunthorpe United have lost midfielder Tom Pugh to FC Halifax Town.

But Ross Barrows will be playing for the Iron again next season and he said: "When I spoke to the gaffer about his plans for next season, it was an no-brainer straight away, and I just couldn’t wait to get it all sorted."

Massive midfielder Emmanuel Maja is now an Aldershot Town player.
