Okoronkwo Signs For Salford On Loan

Francis Okoronkwo has completed a transfer deadline day loan move to Salford City.

The 19-year-old forward, who signed for Everton from Sunderland in September 2021, was a regular in Paul Tait's Under-21s side last term and was part of the Men's Senior Team squad that completed a pre-season training camp in the Republic of Ireland this summer.

Okoronkwo will now link up with Karl Robinson's League Two outfit – having appeared against them as a second-half substitute for the Blues during pre-season – for the remainder of the 2024/25 campaign.
