The 27-year-old shot-stopper will hope the move to the League One club will guarantee him more playing time ahead of the new season.

Reacting to signing with his new club, he said: “I am delighted to get the deal over the line. It was a quick turnaround, so I am very happy it was done quickly. Unfortunately, last season did not work out for me, so I was looking for a solution. I know Scott well from my time at Swindon, and I really enjoyed working with him, so this seemed like a great fit. He gave a lot of information on how he wants the team to play, but also on how he wants me to play, so hopefully we can continue to work well together, I also know Steve Hale so he was involved in the conversations that I had with the club and now I just can’t wait to get going.”

Wollacot has played for sides such as Bristol City, Swindon Town, Charlton Athletic, and Scottish side, Hibernian.
