Stockton started his career at Tranmere Rovers and rose up through the youth ranks at Prenton Park. He went on to play 119 times for the Whites’ first-team and scored 28 goals.

The attacker also had loan spells away from the Merseyside club at Southport, Morecambe and Vauxhall Motors as a youngster.

He left Tranmere on a permanent basis for spells at Hearts and Carlisle United before they re-signed him in 2018.

However, his second spell was short lived and subsequently moved to Morecambe again in 2019.

Stockton has been a hit with Derek Adams’ side this past season and has scored 13 goals in all competitions to fire them into promotion contention.
