Tranmere Rovers have today completed the signing of Manchester City goalkeeper Gunnar Nielsen.
So far, pre-season has seen Joe Collister and youth 'keeper Andy Coughlin play between the sticks, but manager Les Parry has always made it known he was on the look out for a first choice keeper who would more than likely come on loan.
Having been linked for several weeks, pen was finally put too paper to bring Faroese keeper Gunnar Nielsen in on a six month loan deal. Nielsen earlier signed a one year contract extension to his current contract with Man City before completing the loan move.
The move see's Tranmere continue their relationship with Man City which also seen right back Shaleum Logan move to Prenton Park on loan last season.
Nielsen made his Premier League debut last season, coming on as a subsitute for the injured Shay Given away to Arsenal at the Emirates.
It is expected Nielsen will go straight into tonights line-up for the pre-season friendly versus Nottingham Forest, 7.30pm kick off at Prenton Park.
