Port Vale boss Micky Adams has made his first signing of the summer by bringing in Colin Daniel from League Two Mansfield Town on a two-year contract.

The versatile left-side operator, 26, has signed subject to a medical after making 75 appearances for the Stags..

"I had a few clubs showing their interest," he told 91�ȱ� Radio Stoke.

"But, as soon as Micky Adams called me, I couldn't say no because Port Vale are obviously a big club. I've heard a lot of good things about the place."

Adams added: "Lots of clubs were interested in him. We've highlighted him and tracked him all season, and we're sure he'll be a great asset."

Daniel started his career with home town club, Eastwood Town, before moving to but was loaned out to Halifax Town, Grays Athletic and Macclesfield Town.

He made a permanent move spending three seasons at the Moss Rose before moving on to Mansfield in 2012.

In his first season at Field Mill, Daniel was a key member of the Stags' promotion-winning team that won the Conference Premier title, and he was offered a new deal after playing 32 games this season as they finished mid-table in League Two.

Vale boss Adams, who secured defender Carl Dickinson to a new two-year deal last week, is still to sign his own new contract offer.

After much debate on the subject for several months, the 52-year-old is understood to be ready to commit himself to a new one-year rolling deal.
