The former club captain - and current boss of Doncaster Rovers Belles - has agreed a deal until January 2021 following a successful trial.

Balby-born Butler left Rovers at the end of the 2018/19 season, ending a five-year spell at the Keepmoat.

But he is back a year on, and ready to add to his 222 appearances for his hometown club.

The centre half has impressed boss Darren Moore with his fitness levels as well as his presence on the pitch and training ground.

Moore was keen to add an experienced head to squad following the departure of Matty Blair at the end of last season and also wanted to add more depth to his defensive ranks.

Butler spent last season with Scunthorpe United but was released earlier this summer after 21 appearances.
