United re-sign defender Moutaouakil

Hayes & Yeading United have re-signed defender Yassin Moutaouakil on the eve of their Southern League campaign.

The French full-back first joined United in August 2011, when they were in the Conference Premier.

He had been without a club for more than a year, following his release by Charlton Athletic, and went on to make 28 appearances for Hayes & Yeading.

In January 2013, he left for Portsmouth and played 32 times for them in League One and Two.

Now 30, Moutaouakil – who has also played for Motherwell – could play for United in their opening game at Frome Town on Saturday.
