Accrington Stanley boss John Coleman has completed a double loan swoop for Luke Dobie and Will Hatfield.
Midfielder Dobie, 19, arrives from Middlesbrough on a deal until January, while 20-year-old Hatfield joins for a month from Leeds. Dobie told the club's official website: "I'm excited about getting some experience under my belt. Hopefully I can go back knowing more about the game." Stanley manager John Coleman said: "I've known the lad since he was young. "He used to go to a soccer school that I coached in. Myself and Jimmy (Bell, Accrington assistant) have played against his family for years and he's turned into a good player. "He did well at Everton and then signed for Middlesbrough and this is now a chance for him to play some league games as he looks to force his way into the reckoning at Middlesbrough." Attacking midfielder Hatfield said: "I was training with Leeds on Thursday and then got a call from my agent saying Accrington were interested. I was happy to hear what they had to say and now I've signed. It's good."
