New City boss Chris Coleman signed Pearce from West Ham during his time at Craven Cottage.
Born in May 1974, Pearce made 77 (+ 8 sub) appearances for West Ham before moving to Fulham and making his debut for the Cottagers in January 2004.
The 6'4 defender from the same home town as Andy Marshall, has since had sixty first team starts (plus two substitute appearances),scoring once and being sent off twice.
