Hartlepool United attacker Adam Campbell is relishing the prospect of partnering Mani Dieseruvwe up front next season.

He's set to partner Mani Dieseruvwe, who scored 23 National League goals last season, in what promises to be a prolific front line next term.

And Campbell, whose goals helped fire Gateshead to the National League North title in 2022, admits he can't wait to team up with the talismanic Dieseruvwe.

"Definitely, it's really exciting," he said.

"From just a few days into training, I can already see how much quality he's got.

"I can't wait to play with Mani, that's for sure."
