Midfielder Ricky Ravenhill joins Mansfield Town

Mansfield Town have completed the signing of midfielder Ricky Ravenhill.

The 33-year-old had been a free agent for a short period of time following his release by Northampton Town.

"Ricky is somebody who will add a wealth of experience and knowledge to our squad," manager Adam Murray told the club's official website.

"He is someone who has achieved success in League Two previously and is a leader and organiser - specific qualities which I think we needed. In Ricky, we have an excellent all-round professional, who will raise the standards."

Ravenhill, who has agreed a deal at Field Mill until the end of the season, has played for a host of clubs during his career, including Doncaster Rovers, Notts County and Bradford City.
