EXPERIENCED goalkeeper Lee Camp has set his sights on a return to Wembley - 15 years since he played in the first ever game at the new stadium.

The 37-year-old has joined Wrexham on a short-term deal until the end of the season, coming in as a replacement for first choice stopper Rob Lainton who is ruled out for the rest of the campaign with a wrist injury.

Competing for a place with Christian Dibble, Camp is looking forward to playing his part in Wrexham’s promotion challenge while Phil Parkinson’s side also host title rivals Stockport County in the FA Trophy semi-final on Saturday and the reward for the winners is a place in the Wembley showpiece.

England Under-21s drew 3-3 with Italy in the first match at the new Wembley Stadium in March 2007 and Camp, on loan at Queens Park Rangers from Derby County, started the game.

“I played in the first game at Wembley. I can’t remember it, it was many moons ago,” said Camp, who is pictured from the game above.

“I’ve been back once in the play-offs so fingers crossed.”

Camp, who most recently played for Swindon in the latter stages of the 2020-21 season, is delighted to sign for a club that has got so much to play for in the run-in with Wrexham chasing league and cup success.

“Just a good-time goalkeeper, jumping on the bang waggon!” added Camp.

“It is an horrific injury for Rob and really unfortunate because he was having a great season. He was an integral part of what has been going on.

“But that is why I am here, it is as simple as that.

“I am very fortunate that I have come into a situation that is a promotion push and a semi-final of the FA Trophy.

“These are the games as a player you want to be involved in at any time in your career and the position I’m in with my career, maybe this is the last hole.

“It is nice to be involved and it is certainly more interesting than being involved in a relegation battle or just plodding along.

“There is excitement and a buzz about the place and it is good to be a part of it.”
