....has now re-joined their Vanarama National League North rivals AFC Telford United where he also had a successful spell on loan last season.

McAtee joined Shrewsbury's scholarship programme from Burnley in 2015 and enjoyed a productive two-year scholarship.

Capable of playing out wide, in the number 10, or as a number 9, McAtee has natural ability on the ball as well as an eye for goal.

He made his Town debut as a late substitute on the final day of the 2016/17 season and spent the first-half of the following season on-loan at Halesowen Town, scoring 6 goals.

He spent the second half of the season on-loan at AFC Telford and did enough to earn another one-year deal with the club.

Shrewsbury manager John Askey told https://www.shrewsburytown.com: “It didn’t quite work out for John at Ashton, they were struggling in the league. I think it will do him good if he can get playing for Telford. With the club being local as well it’s a good one for him to go to.

“The fact that they want him back, he must have done well and If he can go there and score goals then it can only do him good.”

Askey believes it will do McAtee good to go to a team who are high flying in the league

“Yeah they are playing with confidence and the atmosphere around the place is good and I think it helps you especially if you are coming in on loan. It’s important we send them to the right clubs and try to progress them”.
