Swindon Town have signed teenage midfielder Dylan Mitchell following his release by Aston Villa.
The 18-year-old did not make a first-team appearance for the Premier League club, who he joined at under 13 level.
He provided two assists in 18 matches for Villa's Under 18's last season and also spent time on loan at non-league side Alvechurch.
"We are delighted that Dylan has joined us at Swindon Town following stiff competition from other teams in the league," head of football Jamie Russell told the Swindon Town website.
"He has had an exceptional footballing education with Aston Villa and has already started to achieve success within men's first-team football, this is shown by an outstanding loan period with Alvechurch.
