The centre-half played in the National League with Aldershot for the last two seasons.

Manager Martin Allen said: “He’s good in the air, he’s got good footballing ability, he can play from the back, he’s got a good yard of pace and he’s been up near the top of the league for the past two seasons.

“He’s a good player.”

The 26-year-old began his career with Swindon before moving to Hereford, first on loan and then permanently.

After a loan at Newport he joined Eastleigh.

Evans has signed a two-year deal at the Proact.
