Promising teenager Cameron Rooney has arrived at Runcorn Linnets - on loan from Morecambe FC.

The 18-year-old midfielder has graduated from the Shrimps U18s to the fringes of first-team recognition.

Cameron was last season's Under 18s player of the year at the EFL League One club.

He joined the Lancashire outfit after being spotted playing for Liverpool Schoolboys U13s.

Cameron's maiden appearance in the first team was during the 2021pre-season in a 5-1 win at NPL West club Workington.

He had started out as a striker, scoring for the Shrimps youth team in his under 15s season, making him one of the youngest to do so.

A formation change saw Cameron take on a deeper role, which enabled him to get on the ball more and affect the game.
