Salford City have signed goalkeepers Jamie Jones from Middlesbrough and Matty Young on loan from Sunderland.
Former Wigan Athletic and Leyton Orient keeper Jones, 35, moves to the Peninsula Stadium after failing to make an appearance in his one season at Boro.
The Ammies have lost two goalkeepers over the summer with Alex Cairns going to Leeds and Joel Torrance moving to Welsh Premier outfit Bala.
Jones helped Wigan to League One promotion in 2017-18 and has over 400 career appearances, including spells at Preston North End and Stevenage and loan deals at Coventry City, Rochdale and Stevenage.
He spent last season as number three keeper at the Riverside behind Seny Dieng and Tom Glover, and was released at the end of his one-year deal.
Young, 17, spent the second half of last season on loan at National League North side Darlington.
