He said: "Lucas is a player I have admired for some time and we’re delighted to bring him in and very much look forward to working with him. Ryan will sign a deal as soon as his contract runs out at Aldershot and again, we're really happy that he is coming on board.
"I think we can confirm another couple of players pretty soon and we will also have more of an idea about players we hope to retain and perhaps a couple moving on.
"We want to get the business done and dusted so we can focus from the very first kick in pre-season training and the friendlies. We are trying to find that consistency that alluded us last term.

Blake said supporters who contributed to the club's 12th Man Fund -- set up to help provide some additional finance for the playing budget -- have made a big difference in being able to bring in players.
He added: "Those fans who dig deep deserve a special mention and we are very grateful to them and Dave Robinson for organising the fund."
Meanwhile, the Rocks continue to gear up for their annual sponsors' draw on Wednesday, June 21, at 7pm in the club's Seasons events venue. General manager Simon Cook explained: "Enter the draw and join us to be on the winning team with proceeds helping your community club to maintain and improve both the facilities at Nyewood Lane as well as the quality of the team on the pitch.”
