Mansfield Town’s pursuit of Lewis Brunt has ended with the Leicester City defender opting to join Wrexham instead, for an undisclosed fee. Despite Mansfield’s interest and their bid being turned down by Leicester, negotiations stalled over valuation differences. Meanwhile, Brunt, highly regarded by Stags boss Nigel Clough, has signed a three-year deal at Wrexham, becoming their second Premier League acquisition this summer after Arsenal goalkeeper Arthur Okonkwo.
