Mansfield Town have completed the loan signing of Hull City teenager Will Atkinson.

Atkinson moves to Field Mill for a month

Mansfield Town have completed the loan signing of Hull City teenager Will Atkinson. The winger has moved to Field Mill for the next month, although the deal could be extended for up to three months. Atkinson has already been out on loan at Port Vale this term and made his Hull debut against Plymouth in the FA Cup earlier in January. Stags boss Billy Dearden had been anxious to strengthen his squad as he looks to keep the club in the Football League. Assistant manager Paul Holland told the club's official website: "Will is someone we've had our eye on for quite a while, probably since the start of the season. "He comes highly recommended by people we respect in the game and it's a chance for him to get some league football under his belt."
