Caernarfon Town have been active in the transfer market ahead of the new Cymru Premier season, bringing in nine new players. The club's summer business was detailed by the Football Association of Wales, which published a full list of confirmed ins and outs for every club in the league.
Who has joined Caernarfon Town this summer?
The Canaries have added significant experience and youth to their ranks. According to the FAW's transfer tracker, the club secured nine new signings during the summer window, which closed on September 1st. Notable arrivals include defender Ben Nash from Connah's Quay Nomads and forward Offrande Zanzala from Marine FC.
Further additions include Jordan Piggott from AFC Telford United and Noah Edwards, also from Connah's Quay. The club also raided reigning champions The New Saints for three players: Sion Bradley, Zack Clarke, and Jake Canavan. Youngster Simba Nyamwanza joined from Shrewsbury Town's under-18 side, while Chris Marriott made the move from Connah's Quay Nomads to complete the list.
Who left the Oval during the transfer window?
Several players departed Caernarfon Town as the squad was reshaped. The FAW's list confirms eight players left the club, including last season's top scorer Brad Young, who made a high-profile move to The New Saints. Defender Adam Davies joined Colwyn Bay, while Kyle Harrison and Iwan Lewis both moved to Bala Town.
Youngsters Gruff John, Steffan Alford, Osian Ellis, and Morgan Owen all departed for Porthmadog, with Ellis and Owen moving on loan deals. These departures clear space and resources for the new signings to integrate into the first-team setup ahead of the new campaign.

The 2026-27 Novira Cymru Premier season is scheduled to begin in the coming weeks. Caernarfon Town's first fixture of the new campaign is a home match against Briton Ferry Llansawel on October 23rd. This gives the new squad several weeks to gel in training and any remaining pre-season friendlies.
