Stevenage midfielder mutually agrees to leave club on a free transfer

Anthony Grant has signed for Crewe Alexandra.

The midfielder, who joined Stevenage last summer and made 37 starts and eight substitute appearances in all competitions last season, has signed a two-year deal with Steve Davis’ side.

He had mutually agreed to leave Boro after the club had placed him on the transfer list this summer.

Port Vale were also said to be keeping tabs on the 26-year-old, while his old club, Southend United, were also thought to have been interested in his signature earlier in the summer.
