Hereford United's new signing Alexandre Jeannin has plenty of experience in the football league as well as in the Conference and should prove to be a good signing for the Bulls, who have now filled the hole at left back following the departure of Mark Robinson.
Jeannin signs having been released after two seasons at Exeter City, where he played a total of 82 games, 72 of them being in the Conference. He has league experience with Darlington having played 22 times and also he has played in the league with Bristol Rovers at the end of last season, but his spell there was very short and he only played once.
Jeannin has also played in his native country, for Troyes, where he started his career.
The 27 year old Frenchman is a defender by trade although he likes to get forward down the flank, which is considered one of his greater assets. This signing may be an indication that manager Graham Turner is trying to build a squad for next season that will play a 3-5-2 formation, the same formation which helped the Bulls to an extraordinary 03/04 season.
At six foot tall and weighing 11.6 stone, Jeannin will also fit the bill of a more physical type of player which many supporters have been calling for at Edgar Street. He also is touted as a "free kick specialist", which, again, will be beneficial to United having released Robinson and Danny Williams, the two usual takers of last season.
