Morecambe terminate striker loan deal after injury

Striker Kieran Phillips has had his loan deal at Morecambe terminated early.

The Club has confirmed his loan spell at the Mazuma has ended, with the player returning to parent Club Huddersfield Town after picking up a long-term injury. 

The striker scored seven goals for the Shrimps since joining the Shrimps in August, including a brace in the 5-0 win over Burton Albion on New Years Day, and the winner in a 2-1 victory over Cheltenham Town in Morecambe’s last game. 

It’s understood that the injury will keep the forward out of action for most of the rest of the season, hence the decision to end his stint with immediate effect. 

The Club said they thanked Kieran for his efforts and wished him well for the future recovery.

In a statement on social media, Kieran added: ‘’Thank you to the players, staff and especially the fans for the excellent opportunity.

’’I have thoroughly enjoyed my time here and I’m absolutely gutted to be leaving. Time to focus on my recovery now.’’
