"Once I heard that Wimbledon were interested there was only one thing on my mind," he told the club website.

"I've been in the National League for a few years and now it's up to me to prove that I can make the step up.

"I'm quick, direct and I feel like I can keep scoring goals here. I just want to say thank you to the fans and that I'm looking forward to the journey here."

Manager Johnnie Jackson added: "This is a really exciting signing for the club. Josh has scored goals for a number of years at National League level and is ready to make the step up to league football. As soon as I spoke to him I got a real sense that he was desperate to come and join in with what we're doing.

"It seems like a perfect fit. He fits into our style and the way we want to play. He has brilliant movement about him, he's clever and intelligent with his runs and he's obviously a natural finisher. Most importantly he's a really good character who wants to work hard for us."
