Mansfield Town sign sharpshooter Jamie Reid from Torquay United

Mansfield Town have won the race for the signing of fantastic goalscorer Jamie Reid from Torquay United.

The Stags landed the signature of the sharpshooter, who scored 78 goals in 144 games for Torquay United in the past three seasons.

Reid, who began his career at Exeter City, set alight the National League South in 2018-19, when he bagged 31 goals in all competitions for Torquay in their title-winning season.  

His goalscoring exploits continued with the Gulls last term, as he found the net 18 times in the National League.

Stags’ boss Graham Coughlan told www.mansfieldtown.net

“He is young, fit and gives us great mobility.

“He knows where the net is and is a proven goalscorer.

“We have been tracking him for some time and he is a player who the fans will really take to. He is desperate for an opportunity at a higher level.

“He is someone who really fits into our DNA and as soon as we get going again, I’m sure he will be a player who can get our fans on the edge of their seats.”

Reid joins the Stags immediately after he rejected a contract from Torquay and was given the chance to play for the amber and blues.

He becomes Coughlan’s second signing of the summer as Mansfield look to build on their squad after releasing 11 players at the end of the 2019/20 season.
