Having previously stated there were “no guarantees” that Wrexham would add to their ranks after a 1-1 draw with Watford, Kabore and Ekomie have become the club’s fourth and fifth signings of the window after the arrivals of midfielder Ben Whiteman, goalkeeper Anthony Patterson and right wing-back Danny Imray.
“With Issa coming back, he was a very popular player with us last year, and I think our supporters really warmed to him,” Parkinson said of Kabore.
“I think the time is right for Issa in his career to get a home now. He’s had a lot of loan moves in his career, and [it’s time] to really settle down and establish himself as a player.
“He’s got great energy and personality in the way he plays and we look forward to working with him in the coming years.”
On Ekomie, Parkinson commented: “Jacques is a similar player in many respects to Issa in the way he plays. He’s someone we’ve been working on for quite a while and faced quite a bit of competition to bring him here.
“We’re delighted to have got him over; he’s been with us for a couple of days of training and has settled in well.”
