Morecambe have signed another familiar face with the return of Lewis Alessandra to the Globe Arena.

The day after the re-signing of Shaun Miller on a season-long loan, Alessandra rejoined Morecambe after being released by Notts County.

“I’m pleased to have him back on board now and think he gives our squad a real lift.

“He’s a talented individual who can play anywhere across the front line and even played well for Notts County earlier last season from a midfield role.

“He’s fit and well, can score and create goals and I’m sure our supporters are looking forward to seeing him back in a Morecambe shirt.

“We wish Lewis good luck for the coming season.”

Having started his career with Oldham Athletic, the 30-year-old spent two seasons with the Shrimps between 2011-2013 before spells with Plymouth Argyle, Rochdale, York City, Hartlepool and Notts County.

News of his return followed the signing of former Crewe Alexandra youngster Joe Lynch on a non-contract basis.

The19-year-old midfielder came through the ranks at Gresty Road before being released by the club at the end of last season.

Bentley said: “Joe has had a very good upbringing at Crewe and is a talented player who is looking to kick on in his career after being released.

“He’s a young professional who has good qualities and a desire to succeed. We wish him well as he looks to break into our first team.”
