Wealdstone have signed experienced Brazilian goalkeeper Lucas Covolan, ex-Middlesbrough forward Daniel Nkrumah and centre-back Phillip Chinedu.
Covolan, 34, is a former Brazil Under-20 keeper and played with the likes of Oscar and Phillippe Coutinho before moving to Europe in 2014.
He played 53 games for Torquay United - and scored a headed late equaliser in their 2021 National League Promotion final loss to Hartlepool United - before spells at Port Vale, Chesterfield and Maidstone United.
Last season he had spells at Braintree Town, Ebbsfleet United and Worthing.
Daniel Nkrumah spent time in Middlesbrough's youth ranks
Nkrumah has joined the Stones after being released by Middlesbrough earlier this summer.
The 21-year-old moved to the Riverside Stadium in 2023 from Leyton Orient but failed to make a first-team appearance for the Championship side.
He has spent time in the National League on loan at Dagenham and Redbridge and FC Halifax Town.
Chinedu, 18, joins on a 28-day loan deal from Leyton Orient.
