In an effort to provide two young players at the Championship club vital experience playing regular games, Hull City has made significant transfer decisions about them..
Jake Leake has joined Scunthorpe United, and Billy Chadwick, who joined the Lincolnshire club on January 5, has had his loan assignment at Boston United extended by another month.
Leake joins the Iron amid a flurry of new signings after the club’s transfer embargo was lifted this week following their takeover. He will spend the next three months on loan at Glanford Park.
Since joining at the start of January, 23-year-old Chadwick has made two appearances for the Pilgrims. Both of their appearances came as starts in back-to-back 2-2 home draws against Scarborough Athletic and Gloucester City..
With 18 games remaining, Boston is languishing at the bottom of the National League North table and is two points out of safety despite the Hull-born forward’s outstanding solo goal on his debut.
Leake, meantime, will be hoping to make his Scunthorpe debut on Friday night against Barnet in a critical National League encounter at Glanford Park.
The Iron have had a terrible season since being demoted from League Two, and they are currently five points from safety. “The City student told Iron Player, “(I am) so thrilled to get it done. “I’ve been wanting to do it for a while since I know there has been interest in it for a while. I’m just relieved to have finished it.
When I was an Under-12, I joined Hull City. I hope that my year-long loan at Boston United will really stand me up. I’m hoping I can return and carry out the same action..
