Man City defender Luke Mbete leaves Huddersfield Town and gets new loan move

Manchester City defender Luke Mbete has left Championship side Huddersfield Town to join Bolton Wanderers on loan for the rest of the season.

In the summer, Mbete joined the Terriers for the season after making three senior appearances for the Blues. After initially featuring in four of the first five Championship matches of the campaign, the teenager dropped out of the pecking order in Yorkshire.

His last appearance for Huddersfield came in November during the goalless draw with Swansea City. Speaking after his exit from the Championship club, head coach Mark Fotheringham said: "Luke is a lovely person and has made every effort in his time with us, but it’s unlikely he would’ve seen much first team action going forward with [Tom] Lees, [Michal] Helik, [Matty] Pearson and [William] Boyle ahead of him, with the likes of [Ollie] Turton and [Jonathan] Hogg also available to fill in at the back.
