Aaron Pierre returns to Shrewsbury Town on short-term deal
The 30-year-old, who joined Salop from Northampton in 2019 went on to make 99 appearances.
The defender has spent the past few weeks training with Salop and has penned a deal until January.
Pierre has been named in the Salop squad for the trip to Cambridge and is delighted to have made a return to the club.
He said: “I’m thrilled to be back. The fans of this club have always been amazing with me – from the moment I arrived to the moment I left they were magnificent so I’m really grateful to get the chance to play in front of them again.
“There is a board at the training ground that shows all the players who have made 100 appearances for the club and I used to look at that and was desperate to get on it.
“Unfortunately, I left having played 99 games so now I can’t wait to make up for lost time and get that 100th game under my belt.
“It really is amazing to be back at a club where you feel loved so I can’t wait to pull on the shirt again.”
Salop boss Matt Taylor is a former team mate of Pierre’s and is delighted to have him in as cover following an injury to Morgan Feeney.
He added: “Aaron is a player I know very well having played with him. He also has a strong affiliation with the football club.
“He is a man of immense character and a very good person.
“He has signed a short-term contract to the beginning of January to give us cover while Morgan Fenney recovers from the injury he sustained during the win over Northampton.
“He has a point to prove. And has integrated into the group really well.”
