McAleny Joins Scunthorpe

Young striker to spend rest of season with Iron.

Conor McAleny has become the latest Everton youngster to go out on loan.

The forward has joined Scunthorpe United until the end of the season.

Earlier this week it was confirmed that five other players had extended their own loan deals until the end of the current campaign.

McAleny, 19, made his senior Everton debut in the Toffees' game at Arsenal before Christmas and again featured as a sub in the 1-1 draw with Norwich at Goodison.

Scunthorpe are not yet clear of the League One relegation fight and host Notts County at the weekend.

McAleny tweeted his pleasure at the move, writing: "Looking forward to getting some first team football at Scunthorpe. Happy days."
