Former Man U winger signs for Dale

After a successful trial period at Spotland, winger Jamie Mullan has signed for the club, and will be in contention for a first team place for this weekend's game with Mansfield.

Mullan has been at the club for a few weeks now, and has played in a couple of reserves games, and has done enough to earn himself a contract.

He comes to Spotland having been released by Manchester United at the back end of last season. Since then he has a number of trial periods at clubs in all four divisions of professional football, but Dale have become the first to take a chance on the former England U-18 international.

He can play on either wing, but it is the right wing which is his preferred side, and he was likened to former Celtic legend Jimmy Johnstone during one trial period, and was described by Swansea manager Roberto Martinez as having pace and talent.
