Winger could be available for trip to Wycombe

Morecambe are in talks to sign former Tranmere Rovers winger Chris Shuker on a free transfer. Shuker failed to secure a new contract at Tranmere at the end of last season after making over 140 appearances during four years at Prenton Park. The 28-year-old trained with SPL side Motherwell earlier in pre-season, but is now set to agree a deal with Morecambe. He featured in last week's friendly against Blackburn Rovers and Shrimps boss Sammy McIlroy is hoping to add the wide man to his squad. Shuker will undergo a medical on Friday morning and could feature in Saturday's League Two opener against Wycombe Wanderers if the move is finalised in time.
