Torquay United boss Martin Ling has signed Cambridge defender Brian Saah and Falkirk goalkeeper Robert Olejnik.

Saah, 24, joins the Gulls having played under Ling at both the U's and Leyton Orient.

Former Austrian Under-21 international Olejnik, 24, spent four years at Falkirk, making 102 appearances.

"He is someone that I fully trust. He became an England C international at Cambridge and was their club captain.

"He is a great signing for me and our football club will soon see what a good player Brian Saah is - he will be a major asset to this football club."
