Shrewsbury Town sign Yeovil's Sam Foley on loan
Shrewsbury Town boss Mike Jackson has signed versatile attacker Sam Foley on a month's loan from Yeovil Town.
The 27-year-old, who can play both in midfield and up front, has seen his first-team opportunities limited to seven games at Huish Park this season.
But he played 51 times for The Glovers last term, scoring seven times as they won promotion to The Championship.
And he also netted more than 30 goals in over 100 appearances for his previous club Newport County.
Jackson said: "I spoke to Yeovil manager Gary Johnson about him, he came on the radar a week or two ago.
"He's got goals in his locker, he scored goals at Newport, he scored goals at Yeovil last year.
"I was impressed when he played for Yeovil last year. He has been part of a promotion team which is always good.
"He's got an energy about him, he can play off the left and he can play off the front, so it gives us a few options and competition for places. I am made up he's here."
He said: "He moves well with the ball, he's busy, he's a decent size.
"Obviously he's going to be a little bit match-short but he's not carrying any weight.
"He's looked after himself and he seems a bit of a character.
"He's seems a good lad. Credit to Gary Johnson for giving him the opportunity to come here as well."
Foley is expected to be available for tomorrow's home clash with Bristol City.
