Former Dons forward Zola signs for Stevenage

Former Aberdeen forward Calvin Zola has signed for English League 2 side Stevenage.

The 29-year-old had been linked with a return to Burton Albion but opted to join Graham Westley’s side.

Zola scored three times in 20 Scottish Premiership appearances for the Dons last season before having his contract terminated this week.

The forward said he was looking forward to a new challenge, adding: “I’ve known the manager for a while, I know what he’s all about. With the guidance of the manager I’m sure I can do very well.”
