Kidderminster Harriers have signed Shrewsbury Town striker Callum Stewart on loan.

New boss Paul Wotton has rebuilt their squad following last season's promotion via the National League North play-offs.

Harriers start the new league campaign with a trip to Essex to face Hornchurch on Saturday.

Stewart, 24, has made 23 first-team appearances in his year and a half at Oteley Road from non-league Leamington - but most of them have been from the bench.

Kidderminster Harriers have signed defender Zach Willis after he left Birmingham City at the end of last season.

The 20-year-old, who can play at full-back or in central defence, has been on trial with the National League newcomers after exiting St Andrew's without making a first-team appearance. The club have not disclosed details of the length of his contract.

Willis had a loan spell with Peterborough Sports in National North last season, making 17 appearances as they were relegated to the Southern League Premier Central.

Morgan-Smith, 37, has just ended a five-year spell with Kidderminster Harriers where he scored more than 50 goals and won two promotions.

Guyana captain Elliot Bonds has joined Salford City from Fleetwood Town for an undisclosed fee.

The London-born midfielder, 26, also had spells with Dagenham & Redbridge, Cheltenham Town and Kidderminster Harriers and has signed a multi-year deal with Salford.

Bonds joined Fleetwood in 2024 and was voted the supporters' player of the season in his first campaign before being named captain last year.

He is targeting promotion from League Two with Salford and told their website, external: "I've heard great things about pre-season, the new manager and his coaching team.

"With the team we're building, with players with heart like myself that we're signing, I think this season is one where we have to go one step further. If we stick together and everyone brings the best version of themselves, I believe we will achieve that."

Forest Green Rovers have signed defender Emeka Obi from Kidderminster Harriers for an undisclosed fee.

The 25-year-old has agreed a two-year deal with the Gloucestershire side and has previously also played for Wigan and AFC Fylde.

Tamworth have signed forward Kieren Donnelly from Boston United for an undisclosed fee.

The 25-year-old is the 11th signing made by the Lambs since the takeover of the club by US businessman Abdullah Ashraf.

Donnelly was loaned to Kidderminster Harriers in March and contributed eight goals in 15 games, including one in their 2-0 win over South Shields in the National League North promotion final.

"He's quite rightly had lots of interest over the summer and the fact he's chosen Tamworth is a real coup for the club," said Tamworth boss Andy Peaks.

Kidderminster Harriers have signed former Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder Olly Tipton, taking their number of summer recruits so far to four.

The 23-year-old has spent the past two seasons in the National League with Solihull Moors, where he made 82 appearances.

Although he did not break into the first team at Molineux, he was a regular in the club's under-21s side and got his senior break during a loan spell in League Two with Notts County in the 2023-24 season.

Tipton follows midfielders Callum Dolan and Max Brogan and striker Lewis Walker in joining Harriers as they prepare for their return to the National League under new boss Paul Wotton.

The club have also announced that former academy striker Samson Hewett has signed a new contract.

Kidderminster Harriers have signed striker Lewis Walker following his release by Braintree Town.

The 28-year-old scored 10 goals in 35 appearances for Braintree who finished next to bottom of the National League table and were relegated.

His move to Aggborough, which will be finalised on 1 July, will see him return to the top flight of non-league football after Harriers' promotion via the play-offs last season.

Walker began his career on the books at Derby County and has had experience in the English Football League with Queens Park Rangers and Gillingham.

He is Harriers' third signing of the summer - after midfielders Callum Dolan and Max Brogan - since new boss Paul Wotton was appointed at the end of May.
