A year ago, Holleran plucked striker Josh March from Step 3 Alvechurch, giving him the chance to show what he could do a rung higher.
Sixteen National League North goals in the first half of the season proved enough for the 23-year-old to earn a move into the Football League with Forest Green Rovers.
It left a big hole in the Leamington firing line and the Brakes finished a lowly 18th via points per game.
Holleran knew it was time to restructure his squad and is hopeful his opening five recruits will plug important gaps.
Goalkeeper Jake Weaver, 23, is already well known to Leamington fans after spending last season on loan at the New Windmill Ground, winning the supporters’ player of the year honour. Let go by Birmingham City, he has now joined permanently.
Delighted
Defender Kyle Morrison, 24, has arrived from Alvechurch and midfielder Simeon Maye, 25, from Brackley. Up front, Holleran has added Lance Smith, 28, from Hereford and Danny Waldron, 24, from Rushall Olympic.
