Leyton Orient have signed Manchester United midfielder Jack Moorhouse on loan for the season.

The Republic of Ireland Under-21 international has not figured for the Premier League club's first team, but was among the substitutes for their match against Tottenham Hotspur in February.

Moorhouse joined the Red Devils in 2022 but only returned to action last season after spending a year out with an ankle injury.

Orient boss Richie Wellens told the club website: "He's an extremely talented footballer. He's a midfield player who can change the dynamic of a game. I think it's a really exciting signing for us, and he is a player who has got a lot of potential."
