Joel Grant joins the Dabbers

Nantwich Town have signed experienced winger Joel Grant following a successful trial period at the club.

The former Jamaica international, 34, has scored in both of his first two Dabbers appearances, against Wrexham and Caernarfon.

He spent most of his career in the EFL, and is perhaps best-known for scoring 18 times in 106 games for Crewe Alexandra between 2008-11.

The former Watford youth player also spent two seasons at Wycombe Wanderers, then two at Yeovil Town and two at Exeter City.

In 2017 he settled at Plymouth Argyle, bagging 15 goals in 85 appearances over three years.

After a season at Swindon Town, then Grimsby Town, he has now completed a move to the Cheshire-based outfit, managed by Dave Cooke.

He said: “I’ve been here a couple of weeks training and keeping fit. We’ve got a good group of boys.

"The staff have all been great so I’m really excited and looking forward to the challenge.”
