Morecambe have signed midfielder Nelson Khumbeni from Bolton Wanderers with Nottingham Forest's Julian Larsson also joining him on loan for the season.
Khumbeni, 21, came through Norwich's academy and went on to join Bolton in 2022 where he made his debut in the EFL Cup against Salford City.
Forward Larsson joins having yet to make a full senior Forest appearance.
"I'm delighted. When I heard about the move, I just thought straight away 'jump at it'," Khumbeni said.
Meanwhile, manager Ged Brennan said of Larsson: "He's quick, he's direct, you can either put him out wide and cut him inside or you can play him off the nine or as a nine, so he can play anywhere right across the front which is beneficial to us straight away.
"He's very direct, a great finisher and has an eye for goal."

Why should a man go to work, if he has the health and strength to stay in bed?
