HARRIERS have signed rookie defender Richard Sho Silva, with the player immediately joining Halesowen Town on loan.

The 26-year-old has spent the summer with Harriers and has impressed the managed team with his style at the heart of defence.

London-Born Richard signs from American Soccer League side Philadelphia Fury, having received his International Clearance over the weekend.

Sho-Silva swiftly links up with Halesowen where he'll stay for the next month.

Meanwhile, fellow Harriers defender Nathan Millchamp has today also gone out on loan as he joins Alvechurch for an initial one-month period.
