Mansfield Town goalkeeper Adam Smith will return to parent club Leicester City when his loan expires at the StAGS AT midnight on Saturday.

The 23-year-old has made four starts for MAnsfield Town since making the switch from the King Power Stadium last month.

Stags’ manager Adam Murray said: “Adam has been quality in his performances and I believe he will be somebody who will go on to play in the Premier League.

“We need that little bit of experience in there and we have spoke to Leicester, who have been superb with us about Adam and Callum [Elder].”

The news follows yesterday’s signing of goalkeeper Lenny Pidgeley, who joined the Stags on loan until the end of the season from Newport County.
