Forest Green Rovers are thrilled to announce the signing of Josh Davison from Charlton Athletic on a loan deal until the end of the season.

The 21-year-old joined the Addicks academy squad back in 2019 and last season, featured in nine Sky Bet Championship matches – scoring against promotion winners West Bromwich Albion.

Davison started his career with Peterborough United, joined Isthmian League Premier side Enfield Town on a permanent deal in 2018 and his impressive spell with the Towners paved the way for his chance in South London, signing a long-term contract with the club.

The forward spent the first half of this season with National League side Woking on a temporary basis making 12 appearances for the Cards in all competitions, scoring four goals.

Director of Football Rich Hughes said: “We’re really happy that Josh has joined us. He is a player we have tracked for a while, and he has gained good experience with Charlton and Woking this season.

“He is an honest forward player with energy and power who shows a desire to compete and press from the front. We think he can add to our existing group of attacking players over the second half of the season.”

Davison will wear the number 23 shirt and there is availability for player kit sponsorship by contacting partnerships@fgr.co.uk.
