New Forward Arrives at the Ray Mac from League Rivals

Wednesday, 7 October 2026 18:29

Salisbury FC have confirmed the signing of versatile forward Rashawn 'Rivaldo' Scott from Farnborough FC on a permanent deal until the end of the season.

The 23-year-old worked his way through the ranks at Chelsea and Reading before starting his non-league career at Bishops Stortford, where he later moved to Dagenham & Redbridge.

The winger then went on a month-long loan to Chippenham at the end of February for more game time, playing 381 minutes out of 450 available.

Scott has made six appearances for Farnborough so far this season.

Manager Brian Dutton said: “We're delighted to announce Rashawn as a new signing, as we've been watching him for a while now.

"This is a chance for Rashawn to show everyone the bags of ability and potential that he has.

"He's a tricky winger who can play off the left or as an attacking midfielder, and we're sure he can make an impact and lift the Whites' crowd off their feet in moments."
