Aaron Connolly completes loan move to Chris Wilder's Boro
AARON CONNOLLY HAS completed his loan move to Middlesbrough.
The Ireland international joins the Championship side from Brighton until the end of the season.
“I’m delighted,” said Boro boss Chris Wilder. “It’s an area of the pitch we need to improve in terms of competition for places.
“He’s a young player, he’s played in the Premier League a number of times, and he’s from a technical football club. He’s also played for his country.
“He gives us pace, can finish at the top of the pitch and gives us competition for the players around him.”
