Another New Zealand player will ply his trade in English soccer after All White striker Shane Smeltz signed with League Two club Mansfield Town.
A week after All Whites skipper Ryan Nelsen joined Premiership club Blackburn Rovers, Smeltz, 23, received an international clearance to play in Britain.
League Two is three divisions below the Premiership.
Smeltz, formerly with Napier City Rovers, recently played with Adelaide United in the Australian National Soccer League.
Smeltz is the sixth New Zealander currently playing professional soccer in England.
