Bury boss Kevin Blackwell has signed Blackburn striker Anton Forrester on loan until January.

The 19-year-old has made just one senior appearance for Rovers since moving to Ewood Park from Everton's Academy in January. Forrester was handed his debut by then Blackburn manager Michael Appleton in the FA Cup quarter-final replay defeat to Millwall in March. He appeared as a trialist for the Shakers in the 15-0 pre-season rout against Cornish club St Blazey on Tuesday, scoring seven goals. Rovers have given Bury permission for Forrester to play in this season's domestic cup competitions.
