Taiwo was one of six players released by Chris Kinnear, having made 25 appearances at the Crabble club since joining in January.

The 30-year-old Nigerian has previously played for Championship side Cardiff City and League 2 side Luton Town.

Brown said: "Solomon was one of our first targets this summer and we are absolutely delighted to be signing a player of his calibre.

“He will bring composure to the side as well as lots of energy to our midfield.

"He is a great passer of the ball and is a real winner and the Margate fans should be excited about seeing him in action.”
