Harrogate Town announce new loan signing of Southampton winger
Kazeem Olaigbe could make his debut this Saturday
Harrogate Town AFC have announced the loan signing of Southampton winger Kazeem Olaigbe, subject to EFL clearance.
The Belgian U19 international joined Southampton in 2019 after progressing through the ranks of the Anderlecht academy.
During his time on international duty, Olaigbe featured against the French and English U19 sides at the end of 2021.
The 20-year-old has spent the first half of the season on loan at Scottish Premiership side Ross County, during which Olaigbe amassed close to 20 first-team appearances.
On signing the talented winger, Head of Player Recruitment Lloyd Kerry commented: “Kazeem is a player who we watched a bit of in the summer. He ended up going to play for Ross County and has played a lot of football.
"That experience is undoubtedly something which will have improved him as a player so hopefully he can come here and kick-on again.
“He is an exciting winger with a burst of pace and is someone who we believe can have a huge influence at the top end of the pitch.”
The winger becomes Harrogate Town's new number 10 and could be set to make his debut this Saturday as they make the trip to Carlisle.
