Zavon Hines is back in the Football League with Chesterfield following a successful spell at Maidstone United.
The ex-West Ham forward scored 10 in 25 games for the Stones after signing on a free transfer in the summer, having been at Southend United last season.
The 29-year-old, who has also played for the likes of Bournemouth, Bradford City and Burnley, had two weeks left on his short-term deal with the National League club.

Maidstone manager Jay Saunders said: “Zav’s done a job for us during his time here and at the same time we’ve given him an opportunity to rebuild his career and enjoy his football again.
“I get that he wants to have another crack at the league and I am not going to stand in the way of that, especially with his deal ending so soon and us having Jamar back playing.
“We wish him all the best and thank him for his contribution to our season so far.”
Hines added: “It’s all happened very quickly, but I’m happy to be back in the Football League. Hopefully I can repay the faith that the manager has shown in me.”
Chesterfield are 22nd in League Two, one point above the relegation zone.
