Charlton boss Alan Pardew has signed striker Chris Dickson from Dulwich Hamlet in a £35,000 deal.

The 22-year-old Dickson has signed a two-and-a-half year contract after scoring twice in a reserve-team game for the Addicks last week.

Dickson, will not be able to play for the Premiership club until next season, told Charlton's website: "It's like a dream come true.

"It's a massive step up for me but I've always been a confident player."

Dickson had scored 31 goals in 35 games for Dulwich Hamlet, who play in the Rymans League Division One South.
