Midfielder James Jones has returned to Crewe Alexandra on a short-term contract following a spell as a free agent.

James Jones has officially rejoined Crewe Alexandra, signing a contract that will keep him at the League Two club until January. This move comes after a period of uncertainty for the 30-year-old midfielder, who had been without a club since his release from Burton Albion at the end of last season.

Jones, who previously made a significant impact during his time at Crewe, is looking to regain his form and fitness with the club. His previous stint at Crewe saw him contribute to the team's success before moving on to other opportunities in his career.

After leaving Wrexham, where he helped the team achieve back-to-back promotions, Jones faced challenges with injuries that limited his appearances at Burton. His return to Crewe is seen as a chance to revitalize his playing career.

The club is hopeful that Jones can bring his experience and skills back to the squad as they navigate the current season. His familiarity with the club's environment and supporters could play a vital role in his reintegration.
