Plymouth Argyle have signed Republic of Ireland Under-21 international and former Bradford City centre-back Carl McHugh on a two-year deal.

The 21-year-old's contract at Valley Parade was due to expire this summer.

He is the third new player to join Plymouth this summer following the signings of Lee Cox and Deane Smalley as manager John Sheridan continues to build his squad for next season.

McHugh played 44 times for Bradford in two seasons after joining from Reading.

He was part of the Bradford side which played in the 2013 League Cup final and he scored four league goals for the Bantams.
