Barnet have signed former Millwall goalkeeper Joe Wright on a free transfer.
Wright, 24, joins the League Two side after leaving Eastbourne Borough, who he helped finish third in the National League South and reach the play-off semi-finals last season.
He came through Millwall's academy and had loan spells at the likes of non-league duo Cray Wanderers and Bath City.
He also spent time on loan at League Two Salford City before joining Irish club Galway United in January 2024 and then Eastbourne last summer.
Wright told the club website, external: "My key strength is shot-stopping and I like to be quite demanding – my communication is normally quite good when playing."
Wright is the second goalkeeper Barnet have signed during this window following the arrival of Owen Evans from Cheltenham Town.
Barnet manager Dean Brennan said: "Joe completes our goalkeeping department. He gained vital experience at Eastbourne last season and did really well.
"He has impressed us in pre-season and deserves his opportunity in the EFL with us."
The length of Wright's contract is undisclosed.
The club have now made 13 signings in total ahead of their first season back in the Football League since the 2017-18 season.
They won promotion to League Two after winning the National League title last season.
Barnet begin their League Two campaign against Fleetwood Town on Saturday after hosting Newport County in the Carabao Cup preliminary round tonight (Tuesday 19:30 BST).
