Harrogate Town have signed defender Lewis Cass on a two-year deal from fellow League Two side Grimsby Town.
Cass, 25, can play at right-back or centre-half and has previously played for Hartlepool, Port Vale and Stockport.
He made 31 appearances for the Mariners last season, including their 2-1 Boxing Day win over Harrogate, scoring twice.
Harrogate head of recruitment Lloyd Kerry said, external: “We tried to bring him in a couple of seasons ago and have been monitoring him since.
“He’s a big strong powerful right-back who likes to go forward and knows the level well so he’ll be a solid addition.
“We’re looking for competition for places in each position and have good options in that area of the pitch now.”
