Terriers sign Youds
Second Division outfits Blackpool, Tranmere and Wigan were all reportedly chasing the 32-year-old, however the experienced defender has now signed a one-year deal with the McAlpine Stadium outfit.
The Liverpool-born star began his career with Everton back in 1988, before going on to play for Ipswich Town and Bradford City.
Youds had been searching for a club, after being released by The Valley club at the end of last season, but has now joined The Terriers after agreeing terms and passing a medical at the club.
The signing is new manager Mick Wadsworth's third since joining the club, following the arrivals of Southampton duo Scott Bevan and Scott McDonald on loan deals.
