Blackpool have signed goalkeeper Alex Fojticek on a one-year deal from Premier League side Manchester United.

The 20-year-old Slovakian spent four years with United's academy before he left the Reds earlier this summer and will provide competition to Chris Maxwell and Jack Sims.

"This is a club that is going in the right direction and there is a real feel good factor ," he said.

"I'm really excited to be here and looking forward to getting started."
