Blackpool send Barkhuizen to Morecambe

Blackpool youngster Tom Barkhuizen has joined Morecambe on loan.

The 21-year old striker has signed a one-month loan deal with the Shrimps and will go straight into the squad for this weekend's League Two clash with Burton Albion.

Morecambe boss Jim Bentley was thrilled to have landed the promising talent who has made 19 first team appearances for the Seasiders.

"I noticed Tom a couple of seasons ago when he was at Hereford. He scored a few goals for them that year and did really well for such a young lad," he told the club's official website.

"He is someone with pace who has an eye for goal and I am sure he will be a good addition to our squad.''
