Good luck to Bayliss don't think the manager who we had at the time gave him a chance, hope he goes well
Shrewsbury Town have signed Preston midfielder Tom Bayliss on a two-year deal and Coventry full-back Julien Dacosta on a season-long loan.
Bayliss, 23, spent last season on loan with Wigan Athletic, making 16 appearances as they won promotion.
He moves to Montgomery Waters Meadow after Championship club Preston agreed to cancel his contract with them.
Dacosta, 26, played five games for Coventry in 2021-22 before going on loan to Portuguese club Portimonense.

They are Shrewsbury's second and third signings since finishing 18th last season, following Jordan Shipley's arrival from Coventry City.
"I know Shipperz from our time at Coventry - we came through the system together - so I know his game quite well and he knows me pretty well too," Bayliss told the Shrewsbury website.
"We've got a good group here so hopefully we can keep adding to that and have a successful season."
Shrewsbury will begin the new League One season with a trip to Morecambe on 30 July.
