Full-back Andy Taylor has joined Tranmere from Blackburn for an undisclosed fee after signing a two-and-a-half-year deal at Prenton Park.
Taylor has made 13 appearances this season for Ronnie Moore's side and has done enough to convince the manager to snap him up on a permanent basis.
Moore said: "Andy is a brilliant signing for the club. He has turned down a move to the Championship to come here which shows the level of our ambition.
"He is a quality left-back who attacks as well as he defends which is rare today." Taylor added: "I'm really pleased to be joining Tranmere. I enjoyed my time here on loan and I'm looking forward to playing more football here."
