Defender Matt Penney has turned down the chance to extend his loan spell at Fir Park after moving to English League One side Charlton for the remainder of the season.
Penney was a big hit with the Steelmen supporters since signing a loan deal in August and went on to pick up the club’s player of the month awards in October and November, playing 18 times.
Motherwell hoped to convince the Ipswich Town player - who is out of contract at the Blues at the end of the season – to extend his stay in Scotland but the 24-year-old has opted to test himself elsewhere after agreeing a loan deal with The Addicks on Saturday.
