Shrewsbury Town must name a new skipper before the League One season kicks off on August 10.
Luke Leahy was made Shrewsbury captain before they took on Morecambe in 2022. But after a season of doing the role, the midfielder moved on to Wycombe last summer.He has now moved on to Chesterfield in League Two and a new skipper is set to be appointed.
He has played for Shrewsbury for the last two seasons, the first as a loanee before joining permanently last summer. He is also understood to be a very popular member of the Shrewsbury Town squad and therefore is most likely to be the favourite for the job.When the 32-year-old joined Shrewsbury earlier this summer, it was the fourth time he has signed for a club managed by Hurst and his assistant Chris Doig.
I would expect Winchester to be the favourite for the job, but given Nsiala’s relationship with the Town boss, he will have an outside chance of being named skipper.This option is more of an unlikely one. Feeney is a player who has experience of wearing the armband having done it during his time at Carlisle.
