Michael Olakigbe has made 12 first-team appearances for Brentford

Promotion-chasing Chesterfield have made their third January transfer window signing by bringing in Brentford winger Michael Olakigbe on loan until the end of the season.
The 20-year-old joins the League Two play-off hopefuls, who are currently ninth - six points off the top six and only eight points adrift of the automatic promotion places.
Olakigbe, who moved to Peterborough United in the January window a year ago, spent the first half of this season on loan at League One side Wigan Athletic.
As well as Olakigbe, the Spireites have made the loan transfer of Lincoln City winger Dylan Duffy permanent for an undisclosed fee.
Duffy, 22, has signed a contract with them until 2027.
The arrival of two wingers compensates for the loss of James Berry, who moved to Wycombe Wanderers for an undisclosed fee, and Dylan Markanday, who was on loan from Blackburn Rovers for the first half of the season but has now gone out on loan again to League One side Leyton Orient.
