Crawley Town sign Millwall striker Shaun Batt on loan

Crawley Town have signed Millwall striker Shaun Batt on loan for an initial 36-day period.

The 24-year-old arrived at The New Den in June 2010 and has made 19 appearances for the Lions, after a 61-game spell with Peterborough.

Reds boss Steve Evans told the club website: "Shaun has good technique and explosive pace. He is a talented lad who I have watched many times."

Batt could make his Crawley debut in Wednesday's game against Morecambe.

"I'm fully fit now and ready to play football," he said.

"(Millwall boss) Kenny Jackett has told me I still have a big future at the club and that is great but I now need to play a part at Crawley Town."
