Bristol Rovers have signed forward Shaq Forde from Watford for an undisclosed fee and striker Gatlin O’Donkor on a season-long loan from Oxford United.

Forde, 20, spent last season on loan at Leyton Orient, where he scored nine goals in 43 appearances, and has signed a three-year contract.

O'Donkor is Rovers’ fifth signing on loan this transfer window.

The 19-year-old made 24 appearances for the U's last season before a loan spell at National League side Barnet, where he scored six goals in 14 matches.
