Barnet has secured the signing of 33-year-old striker Oliver Hawkins as their fifth addition for the summer transfer window. Previously with Gillingham in League Two, Hawkins has a track record of playing for Portsmouth, Ipswich, and Mansfield, totaling 96 appearances with 18 goals at Portsmouth. In a recent statement, Hawkins expressed his eagerness to contribute significantly to the team and acknowledged his past challenges. He believes he can still make an impact in the upcoming seasons, highlighting the value of experience in football.
"I feel like I've got a lot to bring," Hawkins told Barnet's website. "I've still got a lot to prove after my last two seasons when I was probably quieter than I should have been."
"I've got a season or two left in me to score some goals and really do well for a team. There's a lot of emotion in this sport and sometimes an older head is good to have around."
