Scunthorpe have signed winger Garry Thompson from Morecambe on a free transfer.

The 27-year-old turned down the offer of a new contract at Christie Park to sign a three-year deal with the Iron.

Thompson, a product of the Shrimps' youth academy, was part of the club's rise into the Football League in 2007. He scored Morecambe's equalising goal in their 2-1 play-off victory over Exeter.

Thompson scored eight goals in 42 appearances for Sammy McIllroy's side last season.
