Grimsby plan to bid for Boulding

Boulding could return to Grimsby for a third spell

Grimsby Town have become the latest team to confirm their interest in Mansfield Town's out-of-contract striker Michael Boulding.

The 32-year-old, who scored 25 goals for relegated Stags last season, has had two separate spells at Grimsby.

The Mariners will face competition for Boulding with Scunthorpe linked with him, and Lincoln and Rotherham having also confirmed their interest.

Boulding scored 28 goals during his two stints for Town in 2001/02 and 2003/04.

The Manchester-born forward scored 11 goals in his first stint and 17 in his second spell.

Having started his professional career with Mansfield in 1999, Boulding also had spells with Aston Villa, Sheffield United, Cardiff City, Barnsley and Rotherham United.
