Brough signs for Mansfield

Mansfield Town have secured Michael Brough's signature for the rest of the season..

The Torquay United midfielder is coming off a productive month with his former club Stevenage, who seemed set to retain his services but failed to agree to terms for an extended loan.

The move will give the 28-year-old an opportunity to advance his career with a Stags side looking to regain a Football League place.

"I have really enjoyed the club, the lads here are brilliant and it's a great place to live", Brough told the Herald Express about his imminent departure from United.

"But I'm a footballer, and I want to play regularly. That's been missing for me."
