Wrexham have signed former Manchester City and Celtic midfielder Josh Adam.
The Scotland Under-21 international joins the League One club following a trial.
Adam, 20, has signed a deal until the end of the season, with an option of a further year.
He said: “It’s really exciting to get it over the line. I’m excited to get started and get going.”
A free agent following his release from the Premier League champions at the end of last season, Adam becomes the ninth new signing at the Racecourse following promotion back to the third-tier.
Manager Phil Parkinson said: “He’s a talented young player and we look forward to working with him.”
Wrexham still have space in their EFL squad list for further signings, with wing-back Anthony Forde omitted following injury problems but with the possibility of being added should he prove his fitness.
Adam does not count towards the squad numbers because of his age.
Born in Glasgow, the attack-minded midfielder began his career at Celtic before switching to Manchester in 2020, featuring regularly in youth team success at the Etihad.
Adam had been training with Parkinson’s club in recent weeks in an attempt to earn a contract.
He added: “They have been tough sessions while I’ve been here on trial – the gaffer’s had us working hard – but the boys have all been brilliant and I’ve got to know a lot of them.
“I’d say I’m a very technical player, I like to get on the ball a lot and make things happen. I’ve had some of the best coaches and best team-mates at academy level, they’ve helped me to grow a lot and it’s challenged me, and now the next step is to get into the men’s game.”
