The former striker, who is the Premier League ’s youngest ever goal-scorer at the age of 16 years and 270 days after netting on his top-flight Everton debut in 2005, retired at the end of last season.
Vaughan has just completed a master’s degree in sporting directorship and told the Tranmere website: “Having been around the club for two years now and having spoken with the chairman (Mark Palios), I am excited about being able to be part of the project going forwards.
