Another loan move for Antonio

Posted on: Fri 20 Feb 2009

Royals winger Michail Antonio has agreed a month-long loan deal with League One side Cheltenham Town.

The move marks a busy period for the 18-year-old, who was on loan at Tooting & Mitcham this past weekend, playing and scoring for the Terrors on Saturday.

He was then recalled by Reading, and scored for our reserves in a 5-0 win over Crystal Palace on Wednesday.

He will train with Martin Allen's team on Friday, and could make his Football League debut this weekend away to Leeds United at Elland Road.

Allen said, "Michail was outstanding for Reading's reserves and is a player I had my eyes on for a long time when he was playing for Tooting. He's a fast attacking winger and we have pace down both sides of the pitch."

Michail will join another of our youngsters Nicholas Bignall at Whaddon Road, with the winger having now extended his loan by a further month.

Earlier this week, Simon Church switched to Leyton Orient on loan, and James Henry scored a fabulous 30-yard equaliser for Millwall on his home debut for the Lions.

Kelvin Bossman has switched to Woking on a work experience deal, while Andrew White is off to Croydon Town on the same basis.
