Hiwula has played through the England age group sides

Manchester City striker Jordy Hiwula has joined League One side Yeovil Town on loan until 5 January.

The 20-year-old came through the academy system at the Premier League club and is a regular member of their Under-21 squad.

He is available to make his Football League debut for the Glovers in Saturday's game against MK Dons.

"We've got strikers but no-one has really hit that bit of form yet," boss Gary Johnson told BBC Somerset.

"I know they've got high hopes for him. He's got electric pace and a good goal-scoring record.

"This is his first loan, so we're taking a bit of a chance but I think he's ready."
