Torquay United have signed Ipswich Town striker Ronan Murray on a loan deal to the end of the season.
Manager Paul Buckle has been openly seeking to bolster his striking options at Plainmoor and Murray, 19, is a young player with a growing pedigree.
Bucks has been in negotiation with Ipswich manager Paul Jewell and the chief scout at Portman Road, former United midfielder Steve McCall, and the paperwork should be completed in time for Saturday’s key clash with Shrewsbury Town.
“I am thrilled to sign Ronan,” said Bucks. “A lot of clubs have been chasing the lad and I am sure he will be a great addition.
“Steve McCall and Paul Jewell have been great with us and I am very grateful they have allowed Ronan to join our club.
“He will go straight into the squad for Saturday’s game with Shrewsbury at Plainmoor.”
The result was Torquay 5 Shrewsbury town 0. Ronan had an excellent start to his on loan spell in sunny Devon and was very instrumental in the 5 – 0 rout with his passing and vision. Best of luck from all at Erris United.
