Former Premier League goalkeeper Brad Friedel is joining Shrewsbury Town as sporting director after a US consortium led by Miami businessman Scott Davidson completed its takeover of the League Two club. The group bought 87.4% of the shares, ending Roland Wycherley's 30 years as owner and chairman. Davidson becomes chairman, while Friedel, who played for Liverpool, Villa and Spurs, will work alongside manager Gavin Cowan.
