WE are delighted to announce that former Boston United defender Zak Mills has joined the club on a 2-year deal.

The 24 year old full-back, who  is capable of playing anywhere across the backline, turned down a new deal at Boston United at the end of last season.

He joined the Pilgrims in March 2014, having already played for them as a Centre of Excellence youngster. 

He signed a new contract with United ahead of the 2015-2016 campaign and was instrumental in helping them to the play-offs.

Speaking soon after putting pen-to-paper, the young defender said: "I'm delighted to sign a 2 year deal. 

"The last couple of years at Boston I've always wanted to make the step up, see what I can do. I feel I'm good enough to play, I'll be jumping two steps but I'm sure I will pick it up quite quickly again."

Full interview coming up on Mariners PlayerHD soon.  

He's also said to have a dangerous long throw and has a decent strike on him (see below).
