Owain Fon Williams puts pen to paper on a two year deal at Prenton Park.
Tranmere Rovers have today completed the signing of goalkeeper Owain Fon Williams on a two year contract.
The 24-year old began his career at Crewe Alexandra but made his first team debut for Stockport County after joining the Hatters in 2008. He made 91 appearances for Stockport and also spent time on loan at Bury before joining Rochdale last season.
Born in Caernarfon, Wales, Owain has represented his country at under-21 level and been included in the full Welsh squad three times.

Manager Les Parry said: “Owain has been our first choice target for some time so I’m really pleased to be able to bring him to the Club.
“Our Goalkeeper Coach Dave Timmins has worked with him before at Stockport and he comes highly recommended.
“He’s relatively young for a goalkeeper but he’s already made more than 120 appearances and was part of Wales’ most successful ever under-21 side.
“He fits the profile of players we want to bring to the Club being young and hungry to play at a higher level.
“I’m sure he’ll fit in well with the rest of the squad."
