Mullarkey used to play in the Mid Lincs Youth League

Lincoln City have signed Grantham Town striker Sam Mullarkey on a one-year deal for an undisclosed fee.

The 20-year-old was released by Nottingham Forest as a youngster and had a spell with Lincoln United before joining the Gingerbreads last summer.

Last season he scored 19 goals for the Unibond First Division South side.

Mullarkey, who was born in Lincoln, told BBC Radio Lincolnshire: "To play for a team where you come from is great, it's a dream come true."
