Harlain is another addition to what is an already strong Gladiators squad for the forthcoming season.
Said manager Adam Clayton: “Harlain is a player that I’ve watched hours of footage on. He’s big, strong & quick with great qualities in one on one situations. He has a calmness on the ball, having previously played in a midfielder role. I’m delighted to get Harlain in the door and it adds another layer of quality to an already strong squad.”
Welcome to the Gladiators, Harlain!
