Evans Kouassi is new at Folkestone Invicta

 

Folkestone Invicta have announced the signing of Canvey Island forward Evans Kouassi.

 

Evans missed most of last season through injury, but has become something of a legend in four years at the Gulls. He scored five goals in the nineteen matches he managed last season, but that followed an impressive twenty four as the Gulls reached the Premier Play Off Semi Final in 22-23, and thirty one in forty seven matches as they won North Division promotion via the Play Offs in 21-22. His first season at Canvey was the very short 20-21 campaign, where he had three goals before the world closed down once more.

 

Prior to the Gulls Evans managed ten goals for Heybridge Swifts during the unfinished 19-20 season, his second spell with the club- after returning in March 2019 after a short but productive period with Mildenhall Town. He was a big part of Swifts success in the 2018-19 playoffs, success which sadly turned out to be futile given the FA's decision to not promote all playoff winners. He previously played for Wealdstone, Bishop's Stortford, Hayes and Yeading, Chelmsford City and at Concord Rangers.
