Posh striker will replace Baker up front

Morecambe have agreed a deal to sign Peterborough United striker Rene Howe on a season-long loan. Howe joined Peterborough from Kettering 12 months ago, but started only two games in League Two last term. However, he impressed during a loan spell at Rochdale where he netted nine goals, including the winner against Morecambe at Spotland. He has now accepted a move to Morecambe for the coming campaign and will help to fill the void created by Carl Baker's impending switch to Stockport. Shrimps vice-chairman Graham Hodgson said: "We are delighted to have signed Rene Howe. "He made a real mark at Rochdale last season and he has chosen us ahead of a number of other clubs, which is great news for us."
