Striker excited to complete a move to Morecambe
Morecambe have continued their squad building by announcing a second new face in as many days.
Morecambe have made striker Teddy Collis their second signing of the close season after he agreed a two-year deal at the Mazuma Mobile Stadium.
The 21-year-old joins the Shrimps, having scored nine times last season in helping Billericay Town win promotion to the National League South as well as the BBC Essex Cup.
He had previously scored 31 goals for Brightlingsea Regent in the 2024/25 season, earning a trial at Colchester United before moving to Farnborough Town last August.
However, his stay at Farnborough only lasted two months before he moved to Billericay.
Collis said: “It’s something to be excited about. I know the last few years haven’t been great but with a new manager, a new team, it’ll be great to be a part of this journey.”
His signing was announced on Thursday, 24 hours after Will Smith became the first new confirmed signing for Morecambe boss Adam Lakeland.
The Shrimps’ manager added: “I’m delighted that Teddy has joined us at Morecambe FC.
“He is a player I have wanted to sign for over 12 months and despite being close to getting him to my last club, it never quite happened.
“The fact that I wanted to take him to the National League tells you how highly I rate Teddy and I believe he can play even higher, hopefully here at Morecambe one day.
“He plays with great energy and enthusiasm for the game, is positive, direct, creative and has an eye for goal.
“He can play in any of the front four positions and I’m certain he will continue to improve under our guidance, and being in full-time football will only elevate his game further.
“Not many 21-year-olds have scored over 60 goals in the last three seasons in non-league, not to mention his many assists as well, so I’m sure Teddy will be a real asset to us going forward and I look forward to working with him.”
