Accrington Stanley have re-signed goalkeeper Aaron Chapman on a two-year deal, following his release by League One side Chesterfield.

The 26-year-old had a loan spell at Stanley in 2014, making three appearances, and played five games with Bristol Rovers last term.

Despite joining the Spireites on a permanent basis in May 2013, Chapman played just one first-team game.

"It's strange to be back but it's nice,"

"I knew the goalkeepers from last season had gone on to pastures new and the manager [John Coleman] gave me a call asking if I was interested in coming back and I was delighted to."

Coleman added: "It's a key position and I'm hopeful of bringing another keeper in over the next few days - and the aim is to get two good goalkeepers fighting for one place."
