Altrincham have signed former Tranmere Rovers forward Sam Taylor.

The 22-year-old was one of 12 players to leave the League Two club upon expiration of his contract at the end of last season.

Taylor came through the Tranmere academy and made six first team appearances after signing his first professional contract at Prenton Park in 2022.

He spent most of the 2025-26 campaign on loan at NIFL Premiership side Linfield, where he scored two goals in 33 appearances in all competitions.
