Tranmere Rovers have signed Everton's teenage winger Matthew Kennedy on a one-month youth loan.

Rovers boss Ronnie Moore has been keen to add a wide man after Liverpool loanee Kris Peterson returned to his parent club, with the Sky Bet League One club thwarted in their efforts to extend his stay. Kennedy, 19, is available for Saturday's clash with Walsall, and Moore told Tranmere's official website: "Matthew is highly rated at Everton and he's someone we've watched quite a few times. "He's quick, likes to take on defenders and will create chances for his team-mates." Kennedy made his debut for Kilmarnock at the age of 16 and has represented Scotland Under-21s.
