Basement dwellers bring in reinforcements

Eredivisie strugglers Excelsior have strengthened their resources with the double signing of Bart Schenkeveld on loan and Moussa Kalisse on a free transfer. The rock-bottom Dutch side have captured 20-year-old defender Schenkeveld on loan from sister club Feyenoord. The young stopper is close to full fitness after recovering from a cruciate ligament injury. Forward Kalisse joins Excelsior on a free transfer after departing Romanian side FCM Targu Mures in September. He left FC Dordrecht for the club in the summer but departed following a discrepancy over wages. The 28-year-old has penned a deal to keep him at the Stadion Woudestein until summer 2014. Excelsior will be hoping the double swoop will provide a much-needed boost, with the Rotterdammers languishing in the basement of the table after taking just eight points from 17 league games.
