Blackpool have bolstered their defensive options with the signing of Eddie Nolan.

Nolan, who was released by York in January, has agreed a one-year contract with the League Two club.

The 27-year-old defender came through Blackburn's academy while current Seasiders boss Gary Bowyer worked there as a coach.

Bowyer told Blackpool's website: "I know Eddie from my days at Blackburn and he'll be a valuable addition to the squad. He's offers great versatility at the back and has performed very well in the games he's played so far."

Nolan added: "I've been here since the start of pre-season so I've settled in well. Training has been good and the manager is putting together a good squad.
