Boss Neal Ardley moved for Winfield as Will Nightingale and Jake Goodman are injured and the 26-year-old could make his debut against his former club Shrewsbury on Saturday.

Ardley said: "Dave has been on our radar for a while. We tried to sign him during the summer but he was out of our range and we looked at him again in January before we signed Deji Oshilaja.

"We had a look at other options including young defenders, but they were players who liked to play as left-sided centre-backs. Deji prefers to play on the left side and we wanted someone to play alongside him.

"At this time Dave fitted the bill for us. He is a big, powerful centre-back who is a good talker. With six games in 24 days coming up we needed someone like him."
