Scunthorpe manager Mark Robins has signed teenage winger Jacob Murphy on a month-long loan from Norwich.

The 19-year-old will go straight into Robins' squad for Saturday's league game at Walsall. Murphy recently landed himself in trouble while on loan at Blackpool for comments made on social media about the club's plight in the Championship and had his spell at Bloomfield Road cut short. He has made two first-team appearances for Norwich and has had previous loan spells at Swindon and Southend. Murphy scored twice in nine appearances for Blackpool.
