Shrewsbury Town forward Ricardo Dinanga seals move to Scottish side
Dinanga has made a loan switch to Scotland.
Ricardo Dinanga has joined Scottish side Spartans on a short-term loan from Shrewsbury Town.
Dinanga, who was made available for a move away from the Croud Meadow this summer, has joined the Scottish League Two outfit until January 10, 2027.
The 24-year-old spent last season on loan at Shrewsbury’s local rivals AFC Telford United, having joined Town from the National League North club on a two-and-a-half-year deal in January 2025.
Dinanga scored three goals in 32 appearances in all competitions for Telford during his loan spell.


The forward had been exploring his options in recent weeks after holding talks with clubs in Ireland and Scotland over a potential move away.
He has now made the switch to Scotland, with Spartans confirming his arrival.
On making the move, Dinanga told the club’s website: “I’m really looking forward to joining Spartans and getting started with the team.
“I’m excited for the opportunity and can’t wait to get going.”
Shrewsbury have wished Dinanga well during his time north of the border.
“Everyone at Shrewsbury Town wishes Ricardo every success during his time in Scotland,” a statement read.
