Partick Thistle have added to their defensive ranks on Deadline Day with the capture of Connor McAvoy on loan from Fulham.
The 20-year-old, who can play at centre-half or right-back, has penned a deal until the end of the season as he bolsters Ian McCall's options at the back ahead of a crucial period in their season. The Jags have an eye on fighting it out for promotion at the end of the season and currently trail leaders Queen's Park by seven points but are in the play-off positions.
The new recruit has been part of the academy system at the English Premier League outfit since he was eight and has been a regular feature in the Cottagers' Premier League 2 side. He's also experienced time out on loan with a previous stint at Wealdstone in the National League.
