Hammer loaned out to rock bottom club

Mipo Odubeko has joined Doncaster Rovers on loan for the rest of the season.

Football League World has confirmed that the League One club have taken the Hammer on loan after his spell at Huddersfield did not work out.

The striker struggled for minutes at Huddersfield, where he was behind Danny Ward in the pecking order.

In total, he played just 107 minutes , and he will hope to play more football during his time with Doncaster.

Odubeko has been prolific for the Irons’ youth sides, scoring 15 goals in 16 U23 games, while also scoring 11 goals in nine games for the U18s.

He has made two senior appearances for the Hammers but will now seek regular first-team football in the third-tier.

An Ireland U21 international, he has a contract with West Ham until 2023.

Doncaster are currently rock-bottom of League One, having won just five of their 27 games thus far this season. They will be hoping Mipo can fire them to safety.
