Joey Barton reveals why Bristol Rovers have signed Jevani Brown on a free transfer

Bristol Rovers manager Joey Barton says new arrival Jevani Brown will add another dimension to the Gas after they completed the signing of the former Exeter City forward.

Brown has signed a two-year contract with the option of a further 12 months at the Mem after his agreement with the Grecians expired. The 28-year-old is due to stand trial on July 7 after pleading not guilty to assaulting a woman and has previously admitted a second charge of assault relating to a different woman.

Brown met his new teammates in the Rovers squad as they returned back for pre-season training at The Quarters on Monday and could be involved for their opening friendly of the summer against Melksham Town on Friday.
