Young defender Mattie Pollock will be boosting his experience in League One this season after joining Cheltenham Town on a season-long loan.

The 19-year-old moved to Vicarage Road on a five-year deal from Grimsby Town in May and has now agreed to link up with Michael Duff’s side for the new campaign.

The centre-half tweeted: “Excited to have joined @CTFCofficial for the season, can’t wait to get started.”
