Dartford missed out on promotion this season after losing on penalties to Weymouth in the play-off final.

Talking to the club after completing his move, he said: “The club is massive and it should be in the National League, if not the Football League. It has everything here to be a full time football club.

“I was attracted by the fans and the manager, it was a perfect fit for me. I am only half an hour away so I am not doing long distance travelling.

“Fans can expect to see a lot of goals from me and I work hard, for myself and the team. I am willing to put in a shift every week. I am here to score goals and get Dartford promoted.”

Barham played 20 games for Dorking in the 2019/20 season, scoring seven goals.
