Stockton has caught the eye for Morecambe this season and has scored 13 goals to help fire them into the Play-Offs.
He 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.
