Harrogate Town have signed centre-back Rory McArdle from fellow League Two side Exeter City.

The ex-Northern Ireland defender, 34, was under contract at the Grecians but wanted to return to Yorkshire, where he spent five years with Bradford.

Former Scunthorpe, Aberdeen and Rochdale player McArdle played 27 times in his one season at St James Park.

"I'm delighted. Once I was aware there was interest, I was keen to pursue and get the deal over the line,"

It is not known whether Harrogate have paid a fee for McArdle, while the length of his deal is also undisclosed.
