Tiernan Brooks has joined National League side Rochdale on loan until the end of the season.
The 20-year-old goalkeeper will be looking to further his experience with the play-off contenders after his recent spell at Cork City was frustratingly hampered by an injury sustained on his debut.
Head of Goalkeeping, Tom Weal, said: “This is exactly the move Tiernan needs at this stage of his development and he’s really excited.
“Choosing his next loan has been a careful process as we feel it’s really important for him to gain match experience at a club who have a similar playing style to ours, which can be particularly demanding for goalkeepers.
“This is a great opportunity for Tiernan to prove himself capable of performing consistently at a good level, and for us to track his progress closely with a view to establishing how he fits into our plans for next season.”
