League Two strugglers Crawley Town have signed former Cardiff City, QPR and Crystal Palace midfielder Jordon Mutch on a deal until the end of the season.

The 31-year-old had been a free agent since leaving Australian A-League side Macarthur FC in May last year.

Mutch featured in 21 league games for the club following stints in Canada, South Korea and Norway.

His most recent appearance in English football was for Reading in a 7-1 defeat by Norwich in April 2017.

"We've been monitoring him for a while," Crawley director of football Chris Galley told

"He's a quality player with a vast amount of experience."

Mutch joins a Crawley side 23rd in League Two and two points from safety, and he could make his debut for the Reds against Northampton on Saturday.
