Doncaster Rovers have signed midfielder Patrick Kelly on a season-long loan deal from Premier League side West Ham United.
The 19-year-old joined the Hammers from his boyhood side Coleraine in 2022 at the age of 16.
Kelly is yet to make a full senior appearance for West Ham, however, but won the FA Youth Cup and Under-18 Premier League South with their Under-18s side.
“What we like is that he’s excellent on the ball and an all-action type that can jump and press and recover with ease. He can also beat people, which is very important for us," Rovers boss Grant McCann said.
