Greenidge, 28, made 35 appearances, scoring four league goals, and also represented Guyana in the CONCACAF Nations League.

The big centre-back, who joined the Stones in October 2022, said he was “happy to be here”.

Long-serving Brown is on board for a fifth season.

The 24-year-old, who can play anywhere across the defence, made 48 appearances in the 2023/24 campaign.

He also scored the goal at Farnborough that secured United’s play-off place.

“I feel at home here, I love playing for Maidstone and I can’t wait to get going again,” Brown told Stones TV.

Manager George Elokobi’s backline is taking shape nicely, with Greenidge and Brown joining George Fowler in signing new contracts, while centre-half Temi Eweka has joined from Slough.
