There have been a slew of player movements in the lower leagues, this week, with Yeovil Town, Notts County and Brighton all bringing in new players, albeit on short loan agreements.
Darren Purse, formerly of Birmingham and West Bromwich, will play for Yeovil Town for the next month, after the Glovers persuaded his current club, Millwall, to part with the defender.
Purse, a veteran of the game, will serve as a temporary replacement for Yeovil regular, Paul Huntington, who is struggling with a broken hand, and is unlikely to make a return to the dressing room for 3-4 weeks.
Everton’s Kenny Orenuga has made the trip to Nottinghamshire, after County, claimed the 18-year-old on a month-long loan deal.
Orenuga, who has yet to play for the Toffees in the league, arrived at Meadow Lane last week and played in County’s draw against Brentford, coming on as a substitute in the 81st minute. Those following the football betting will be keeping a close eye on him.
Finally, Brighton have captured Chilean defender Gonzalo Jara on a deal that will keep him at the club until January.
Jara, who usually plies his trade at West Bromwich, was described as having “great pedigree”, by Gus Poyet, boss at the Seagulls. “He will bring quality […] and help us recapture our early season form.” The South American can play in any defensive position, according to Poyet.
The side have also brought in Newcastle goalkeeper Steve Harper on a month-long deal. Those following the Championship football betting will know he is a quality player.
However, the two loan signings were unable to stop their new side from falling to a 1-0 defeat at the hands of West Ham last night. Harper’s former Newcastle team-mate Kevin Nolan scored the only goal of the game in the first half.
