Norwich City have signed goalkeeper Paul Jones on a two-year contract.
The 30-year-old has joined the Canaries on a free transfer after spending the last two seasons with Portsmouth, making 64 appearances for the League Two club.
He also had a loan spell at his former club Crawley last season and played for Leyton Orient, Exeter and Peterborough earlier in his career.
Jones, who has made a total of 419 first-team appearances, told Norwich's official website: "It's one which has come a bit out of the blue but I'm really excited to get going now.
"I've met all the lads and it's nice to have things done. I'm looking forward to getting settled into the club now.
"I had a season in the Championship with Peterborough a few years ago, so it's not a league that's foreign to me. I'm hoping to add experience to the squad."
City boss Alex Neil said: "With Declan Rudd going out on loan to Charlton Athletic, it's given us an opportunity to bring an experienced goalkeeper into our set-up.
"It was important we brought in someone with good pedigree in the Football League who could add to what we have. In Paul, we have a player who matches the qualities we are looking for well."
