Morecambe midfielder Garry Hunter has penned a new two-year deal with the League Two outfit.

The 23-year-old, who has been with the Shrimps from junior level, made his debut for the club in a 3-2 victory over Dagenham back in August 2003.

Hunter's extension comes a day after boss Sammy McIlroy announced the signing of midfielder Michael Carr from Northwich.

Hunter told the club's official website: "I am delighted to sign a new contract and am looking forward to another successful two years.

"I will be looking to start next season where I left off the last and establish myself as a regular in the side, and perhaps score a few more goals as well."
