Brentford midfielder Emmanuel Oyeleke has joined Northampton on a month-long loan deal.

Oyeleke, who can also play at full-back, had spells at the academies of both Chelsea and QPR before joining the Bees and has made two first-team appearances for the Griffin Park club. The 20-year-old will be added to the Northampton squad for their trip to Gillingham on Tuesday night. Cobblers boss Aidy Boothroyd said: "I have watched Manny play a number of times and he will add to our squad. "He is a strong, athletic, combative midfield player who can play anywhere across the midfield or at full-back. "He is here to challenge for a first-team place and to gain experience. I think we can help Manny and I know he can help us."
