Mansfield Town have signed full-back Frazer Blake-Tracy on a two-year contract following his release by Swindon Town.

He is the fourth Stags signing in the wake of promotion to League One following Lee Gregory, Keanu Baccus and Callum Johnson.

Blake-Tracy made 41 appearances for the Robins last season, scoring twice, after arriving from Burton Albion.

The 28-year-old moves in the opposite direction to midfielder Ollie Clarke, who joined Swindon from Mansfield for an undisclosed fee last Friday.

"Frazer is someone who we’ve watched extensively in the last 12 months. He’s a left-sided defender who we feel has been one of the best players in League Two over that period," Mansfield boss Nigel Clough said.

Blake-Tracy added: "I’ve been in dialogue with the manager for a few weeks now and it’s clear that this is a club that is moving in a very good direction.

"I played against Mansfield a couple of times last season and they were probably the best side we faced."
