Bolton Wanderers manager Ian Evatt has admitted that he is 'very excited' to have secured the signing of Manchester United youngster Shola Shoretire.
The 18-year-old, who joined United's academy at the age of just nine-years-old, has joined the League One promotion hopefuls on loan for the remainder of the season, offering him his first opportunity to secure regular first-team football. He has made five first-team appearances for the Reds so far, but has not featured since the final day of last season, appearing as a late substitute against Crystal Palace.
Capable of playing in several different positions, the versatile forward should benefit from a short-term loan stint at the Macron Stadium, with Wanderers very much aligned with United's own footballing philosophy. They also already have a handful of youngsters on loan from Premier League clubs.
