Liam Roberts 'over the moon' to sign new contract with Mansfield Town

Liam Roberts has signed a new two-year contract with Mansfield Town.

The deal will see Stags’ number one shot-stopper remain at the One Call Stadium until June 2028.

Roberts now commits a further two years to Mansfield Town, where he has very much become a fan favourite and reliable figure within the squad.

“I’m over the moon, I absolutely love it here and am delighted to sign a new contract ahead of the league season,” Roberts said. “I’m grateful to the gaffer, the coaching staff and the boys for a good last year and along with the rest of the boys I have a real motivation and determination to do even better this season.”

Clough said: “Liam signing a new contract is a reward for a brilliant season and we wanted to secure him for a little while longer. Liam’s established himself as a firm favourite and a great number one goalkeeper.”

Stags hosted a meet and greet with Roberts on Thursday at the stadium club shop prior to his new contract announcement, where he met fans and signed autographs.
