Adam Lewis, a defender who spent 19 years at Liverpool, has left the club on a free transfer to join League Two side Morecambe on a one-year deal. This marks the end of a chapter for Lewis, who joined Liverpool’s academy as a U6s player and will turn 25 later this year. The club has played a significant role in his development, and he even trained with Jurgen Klopp’s first team and made his debut in the FA Cup replay against Shrewsbury in 2020.
However, Lewis’s time at Liverpool was not without its challenges. He went on five loan spells during his tenure, with his last two being with Newport County in League Two. Now, he will be joining their rivals, Morecambe, as one of their 15 new signings.
Lewis took to Instagram to express his gratitude to Liverpool for the opportunities they provided him and to look ahead to his new journey with Morecambe. He acknowledged that his time at Liverpool was special and that the club would always hold a special place in his heart. He also expressed his excitement about joining Morecambe, meeting the fans, and starting the new season.
Lewis received well wishes from current and former Liverpool players, including Steven Gerrard, Luke Chambers, James Norris, Kaide Gordon, and Paul Glatzel. It’s clear that he has made an impact on those he has worked with during his time at Liverpool.
Lewis is not the only young player who has found a new home after leaving Liverpool this summer. Melkamu Frauendorf joined Hannover 96, Luke Hewitson signed with Fleetwood Town, and Francis Gyimah moved to Stoke. It’s promising to see these talented youngsters finding new opportunities to continue their development and pursue their footballing careers.
This move to Morecambe represents a new chapter in Adam Lewis’s career. While leaving Liverpool may be bittersweet, it opens up new possibilities for him to showcase his skills and make a name for himself in the world of professional football. As he embarks on this new journey, it will be interesting to see how he adapts to his new surroundings and contributes to Morecambe’s success in League Two.
