Manager Paul Cox has acted quickly following news that James Jennings, the regular left-back, will miss the rest of the season because of a torn hamstring.
The 23-year-old old has played 20 times for The Hatters this season and has also spent time on loan at Tamworth this term, whom Stags face away this Saturday.
Speaking about his new signing, Cox told www.mansfieldtown.net: Â "He's a natural left back, with good ability both in defence and going forward. Â The next eight games are important and we need to be sure that all 'bases are covered'. Â He'll be a very good addition to the squad."
