Morecambe have signed young goalkeeper Tony Thompson for the forthcoming season to provide back-up to Barry Roche.
First-choice stopper Roche is available again following his recovery from a long-term hip problem and the Shrimps have been seeking cover for the Irishman since releasing Andreas Arestidou.
Thompson, 20, was available on a free following his release from Rotherham and has penned a five-month contract.
"Tony is a young goalkeeper who has been the training with us all summer," manager Jim Bentley told his club's official website.
"He is big and brave, and will provide support for Barry Roche."
