Tranmere have completed the signing of former Crewe defender Chris McCready. The Chester-born 24-year-old has agreed a one-year deal at Rovers after leaving Crewe at the end of last season.
"We now have a lot of local lads who will all be doing their best to try and get promoted this season," boss Ronnie Moore told his club's website.
Moore does not expect to add to the nine new signings he has made since taking over at Tranmere earlier this summer before the new season starts.
