Blue Square Premie club Mansfield Town have announced the signing of Ollie Hotchkiss until the end of the season.
The 20-year-old`s contract with Coca-Cola League One leaders Leeds United has now terminated.
Hotchkiss originally joined on loan from Leeds for a second loan spell at Field Mill in October, and has since made four starts and two substitute appearances.
He has impressed in central midfield and bagged himself a goal away at Gateshead at the start of last month.
Manager David Holdsworth drove up to Leeds to capture the midfielder's signature. After doing so, he told mansfieldtown.net: "I am absolutely delighted to have Ollie with us on a permanent basis and I am very pleased he has decided to join us now at this stage in his career.
"It is never easy to leave a club for which you have been playing for so long, but it is testament to our football club that he has chosen to sign for us.
"I have a great relationship with Ollie and am delighted to keep him."
