Chris Kinnear's Crabble rebuild continued on Wednesday as Dover unveiled their ninth summing signing as Australian Giancarlo Gallifuoco.

The 23-year-old defender played the second half of Tuesday night's 3-0 pre-season friendly win at Deal Town and put pen to paper on a one-year-deal.

The former Australian under-23 international - who will wear the No4 shirt at Crabble - played 35 times for Torquay in National League last season, including both games against Dover, and scored three games.

The Sydney-born star moved to Devon after a spell Down Under with A-League side Melbourne Victory.

He first came to England as a teenager to join Tottenham in 2012 and spent two years in the Academy before leaving for Swansea City where he spent a year before returning to Oz.

The versatile centre-back, centre midfielder or right back has also played for Australia at under-17 and under-20 level.

He joins Ryan Bird, Femi Ilesanmi, Tobi Sho-Silva, Connor Essam, Manny Parry, Kane Richards, Mitch Brundle and Jamie Allen in switching to Crabble this summer.
