Fleetwood Town sign Jordan Rossiter on free transfer from Rangers

Rossiter has signed a one-year-deal with an option of a second.

The former Liverpool academy graduate was a key player for Town last season before a season ending ACL injury picked up against Tranmere Rovers in November.

Speaking about the move, Rossiter said: "I am absolutely delighted to get this over the line. I'm looking forward to getting back fit and getting cracking again.

"It's been a great year, I've loved being with all the lads, everyone has been brilliant with me.

"Obviously I suffered the injury in November but everybody has been first class with me and I can't wait to repay the faith everybody showed in me.

"I'm feeling really good, I'm back on the grass, just building up my fitness and hopefully it's not too long before I'm back on the pitch helping the lads out.

"My goal is just to get back to full fitness as quickly as I can, get back to playing as quickly as I can and get back to helping the lads. Hopefully that's not too far away."

The Liverpudlian will wear the same no.16 shirt that he wore last season for the Cod Army and the effort that went into his rehabilitation was not lost on him.

The 23-year-old has been a fixture at Poolfoot Farm for the last nine months, even throughout the pandemic, working hard to get himself fit alongside Fleetwood coaching staff.
