Grimsby Town have signed former Swindon Town midfielder George McEachran on a two-year deal.

The 23-year-old was released by the Robins earlier this summer after making 42 appearances in all competitions in 2023-24.

McEachran came through Chelsea's academy and was part of the England team that won the Under-17 World Cup in 2017.

"George is a technically terrific player. (Head of recruitment) Joe Hutchinson had him with the England U17s and told me all about his character, which is important,"
