Oldham Athletic have signed winger Josh Hawkes on a two-year deal after he left Tranmere Rovers.
The 26-year-old came through Hartlepool’s academy and went on to make 61 league appearances for the club before joining Sunderland where he made just two appearances.
From there he eventually joined Tranmere Rovers in 2022 and scored 26 goals in 134 appearances before leaving at the end of last season.
“Boundary Park has a great atmosphere and a real ambition to climb the leagues which was a huge factor in me signing,” he told the club website, external.
“I want to bring energy, creativity and goals from out wide, and help the team push up the table and match the ambitions the coaching staff have.”
