Yeovil Town have signed Blackburn goalkeeper Jake Kean on an initial month-long loan deal.

Kean made 18 appearances for Rovers in the Sky Bet Championship last season but lost his place when Paul Robinson returned from injury.

With Blackburn signing Middlesbrough keeper Jason Steele before the transfer deadline, Kean found himself pushed further down the pecking order at Ewood Park.

Before getting his first-team chance, Kean also spent loan spells with Hartlepool and Rochdale.

The former England Under-20 international will compete with Chris Weale for the No.1 jersey at Huish Park.
