JASON Koumas has today rejoined Tranmere Rovers on a one year contract, subject to Football League / Football Association clearance.

The former Welsh international has been training with the squad since early July and made his first appearance in a Rovers shirt in the pre-season friendly at Wrexham last Saturday.

Koumas began his career at Tranmere Rovers in 1998 and scored 32 times in 150 appearances for the Club.

His performances earned him a club record £2.5 million transfer to Premier League side West Bromwich Albion in 2002.

He made more than 100 appearances for the Baggies before joining Wigan Athletic for £5.3 million in 2007.

The 33-year old has scored ten goals in 34 international appearances for Wales.

Manager Ronnie Moore said: "I'm delighted Jason has agreed to join us.

"He's probably one of the most talented players the Club has ever had and you only have to look at the money other clubs have paid for him to see that.

"He fell out of love with the game and hasn’t played for two years but he came in at the start of July and met us and said he wanted to start playing again.

"His attitude has been first class since he has been back and he certainly hasn’t lost any of his ability.

"He has trained really well over the last month and has been getting fitter and fitter.

"When he's fully fit I believe in Jason we will have one of the best players in League 1."
