Lincoln have signed former Birmingham City goalkeeper Zach Jeacock on a free transfer.

The 23-year-old has agreed a two-year deal, with the Imps also having an option for a further 12 months, but they intend to send him out on loan next season.

Jeacock made his senior Birmingham debut in a 1-0 Championship win over Brentford in September 2020.

His most recent appearance for Blues came in April 2022, after which he had loan spells with Salford and non-league Gloucester before being released earlier this year.

"We have signed Zach because we see him as a potential future No.1 goalkeeper," said director of football Jez George.

"Zach will train with us throughout pre-season and then we will find a loan that can provide him with a platform to play 40+ games at the best possible level."

Lincoln begin the new League One campaign with an away game against Burton Albion on 10 August.
