JJ McKiernan helped Eastleigh to a ninth place finish in the National League last season as they missed out on the play-offs by just four points

Morecambe have signed midfielder JJ McKiernan on a one-year deal after his departure from Watford.

The 21-year-old ed the Hornets as a teenager in 2018 but did not make a senior appearance for the club.

McKiernan, a Northern Ireland Under-21 international, spent last season on loan with Eastleigh, scoring four goals in 41 National League appearances.

"JJ is still a young, raw talent but we believe we can help him develop here," said Shrimps boss Derek Adams.
