SOLIHULL Moors have completed the signing of defender Oscar Rutherford from Dagenham and Redbridge for an undisclosed fee.
The 21-year-old scored one goal and provided five assists in 48 appearances for Dagenham last season.
Rutherford scored on the final day of the 2024/25 campaign in a 1-1 draw against Moors as the Daggers suffered relegation from the National League.
He spent time in Plymouth Argyle’s academy before moving to Eastleigh.
Rutherford made 70 appearances during two seasons with Eastleigh as he won the club’s young player of the year award.
Moors head coach, Matt Taylor said: “Oscar is a fine athlete and has a very bright future.
“We know there was a lot of interest from other clubs, including those in the EFL but it speaks volumes for where we are as a club that he chose to come here.
“I want to thank the chairman and the board once again for their support in strengthening the squad.
“I’m really pleased to see Oscar join and can’t wait to work with him.”
Rutherford added: “I came and looked at the facilities, met the manager, and knew straight away that this is where I wanted to play my football.
“There is so much positivity around the whole club this summer and it’s exciting to be joining.
“Now I will keep working in pre-season, keep pushing myself, and hopefully I can play a part in a successful season.”
