Chesterfield have agreed a deal to sign former Shrewsbury Town defender Danny Hall.

The 24-year-old is available on a free transfer after spending the second half of last season at Gretna, who have gone out of business.

Hall had joined Gretna from Shrewsbury in January and has now agreed a one-year contract to return to League Two football.

He will sign the deal upon completion of a medical and Chesterfield boss Lee Richardson feels he will be a useful recruit.

Richardson told the club's official website: "Danny is a versatile player who I have monitored and he has become available due to Gretna's unfortunate demise."

Hall is expected to be a replacemet for Janos Kovacs in the Chesterfield squad after the Hungarian stopper joined Lincoln City.
