Charlton Athletic sign Simon Church, Marvin Sordell

Charlton Athletic have completed the signings of Simon Church and Marvin Sordell.

Former Reading striker Church has penned a two-year deal following a successful trial at the Valley, while Bolton Wanderers frontman Sordell has agreed a season-long loan move.

"It's no secret that we were looking to bolster our striking options," Charlton manager Chris Powell told BBC Sport. "They are two hungry young strikers with points to prove.

"Marvin's goalscoring record is good. He can score all types of goals with both feet and he's a lad who has got pace, and has got a real eye for goal.

"Simon is another striker with good pedigree. He is an all-round striker, and his movement is excellent."

Charlton travel to Bournemouth on Saturday.
