Central defender Kyle Ferguson has arrived at Yeovil Town on loan until the end of the season from National League Premier Division side Rochdale.
The 25-year-old brings much needed cover in the Glovers’ backline following injuries to Morgan Williams and Jake Wannell ahead of the visit of big-spending York City at Huish Park this weekend.
He joins defender Frankie Terry and forwards Ryan McLean, Ciaran McGuckin and Kyrrell Wilson as the fifth loanee on the books, the maximum allowed to feature in a matchday squad. Sean McGurk and James Plant, who were on loan from Swindon Town and Port Vale respectively, have both returned to their parent club due to injury.
It is not an unfamiliar location for the Scotsman who appeared as a ninth minute substitute for his parent club following an early injury to Ethan Ebanks-Landell during Dale’s 1-0 win in Somerset on August Bank Holiday Monday.
He has not featured for Rochdale since Boxing Day which was his 12th appearance this season. In the 2022/23 season, he had further experience at this level during a loan spell at Altrincham from Harrogate Town.
Welcome to Somerset, Kyle!
