Notts County have signed Nick Tsaroulla on a two-year deal after the wing-back turned down a contract offer to stay with League One-bound Crawley Town.

The 25-year-old made 128 appearances and scored 12 goals in almost four seasons with the Reds.

Tsaroulla, who has a further 12-month option on his Notts deal, came off the bench in second-half stoppage time as Crawley beat Crewe Alexandra at Wembley to win promotion to League One last month.

He scored six goals in 49 games in all competitions last term as the Sussex club secured promotion via the play-offs.

The club said they were in negotiations over a new contract with Tsaroulla on 24 May but were unable to agree a deal.

Tsaroulla came through the Tottenham Hotspur academy before moving to Crawley in October 2020.

"He's going to be a brilliant addition on so many levels and we're delighted he's decided to progress his career with us," said Richard Montague, who sits on Notts' board and leads on recruitment.
