Accrington Stanley have confirmed the signing of Donald Love from Morecambe.

The defender has joined Accrington on a two year deal.

"I'm really happy to get it done. When John and Ged said to come in and train, and get a feel for the place, straight away I knew I wanted to sign,” Love said, speaking to the club’s website.

"I didn't really know it was a derby until I was at Morecambe, but hopefully we go and beat them this year.

"Knowing Ged, Faz as well, I've known Faz for two years, it was just really good to come and meet John, and then get a chance to sign."

Love is a product of the Manchester United Academy and appeared once in the Premier League for the Red Devils.

He has had spells with Sunderland, Shrewsbury Town, Salford City and Morecambe.
