Winger Sean McGurk has joined Yeovil Town from League Two side Swindon Town on a one-month loan deal.
The 21-year-old has appeared 12 times for the League Two side, most recently in their Vertu Trophy win over Wycombe Wanderers earlier this month.
He joined the Robins in February this year having left Leeds United, where he had been a regular feature in the youth team set-up, and made nine appearances at the County Ground last season. This season a combination of injuries and falling out of favour with former manager Mark Kennedy has seen him having limited chances.
Speaking about the Liverpool academy graduate, current Swindon boss Ian Holloway recently told the Swindon Advertiser: “I asked him why he wasn’t playing and he blamed someone else, so I grabbed him by the ears and said ‘No, you can’t be working hard enough. It is your fault, nobody else’s.’
“He has been out in the cold but I might need his skill here and there and he can do all sorts of things.
“We almost got one of the best goals I have ever seen down in the bottom corner with his feet – they don’t realise how good they are.”
The signing follows the recent departures of winger Dylan Morgan, who joined National League South leaders Torquay United last week, and defender Ed James, who has returned to his parent club Exeter City with a hamstring injury.
On Christmas Eve, both clubs confirmed the signing on a one-month deal, subject to ratification by the EFL, and McGurk will be available for the home match with Eastleigh at Huish Park on Boxing Day.
