Newport County have signed former Cardiff City striker Omar Bogle from rival League Two side Hartlepool United.
The 28-year old English-born Ghanaian attacker has agreed a two-year deal to join the Exiles for an undisclosed fee.
“It’s another exciting signing for us,” Rowberry said after The Exiles completed their eighth summer signing.
“I would like to thank Gavin [Foxall, chairman] and Darren [Kelly, Sporting Director] for the work they have put into this.”
Bogle leaves Pools just six months after signing a two-and-a-half year deal on a free transfer from Doncaster Rovers.
He scored five goals in 20 appearances for Hartlepool – four of which came in his first eight games – as the Victoria Park side retained their EFL status following promotion from the National League.
He returns to south Wales having made 21 appearances for Cardiff after a £700,000 move from Wigan Athletic in 2017, working with Neil Warnock and coach Rowberry.
Bogle spent time on loan at Peterborough United, Birmingham City and ADO Den Haag having struggled to make an impact, before a permanent move to Charlton Athletic.
He will boost forward options at Rodney Parade with Newport having lost the services of League Two top scorer Dom Telford, who turned down a new contract to sign for Crawley Town.
