Ebbsfleet United manager Daryl McMahon has signed former QPR, Aldershot, Farnborough and Oxford City striker Bradley Bubb

Ebbsfleet boss Daryl McMahon has swooped to sign non-league hitman and former international striker Bradley Bubb.

The 28-year-old frontman - once a teammate of McMahon at Farnborough - was out of contract at National League South rivals Oxford City and has agreed to head to Stonebridge Road for 2016/17 having netted nearly 200 goals in his club career.

Bubb - who earned 10 caps for Grenada in the CONCACAF Gold Cup and Caribbean Cup between 2010 and 2012 - netted 18 league goals last term and 24 in all competitions to finish as City's top-scorer.

After coming through the youth ranks at Queens Park Rangers, Bubb made his name with prolific spells at Chalfont St Peter and Beaconsfield SYOB to earn a move to Farnborough in 2009.

His goals helped Borough earn promotion from the Southern League and, alongside McMahon, to the Conference South promotion final in 2010/11.

During his time at the Hampshire side Bubb netted a penalty against Fleet following the infamous sending off of keeper Preston Edwards.

A return of 40 goals in 88 games earned Bubb a switch to Aldershot in the Football League in 2011 while he also found the net regularly in subsequent loan spells at Eastleigh and Woking.

After a short spell in Belgium where he played under current QPR boss Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink at Royal Antwerp, Bubb returned to Aldershot before heading south to Havant & Waterlooville two years ago.

Last season at Oxford he scored another penalty against Fleet in the 1-1 draw at Marsh Lane.
