Boston United have signed Barnsley wing-back Georgie Gent on a month-long loan.

The 22-year-old, who came through the Manchester City academy, will bolster the Pilgrims' options on the left flank with Kai Mauro likely to be on international duty with Gibraltar.

Gent has made 36 senior appearances for Barnsley but has yet to feature this season.

He could make his Boston debut in the National League Cup against West Bromwich Albion on Tuesday.

Gateshead have signed defender Harrison Holgate and forward Jordy Hiwula in deals until the end of the season.

Holgate, 26, was a free agent after leaving League Two Fleetwood Town where he had spent his entire career, playing more than a century of games for them.

Much-travelled Hiwula, 31, was last at fellow National League side Boston United, for whom he scored seven goals in 39 appearances last season.

The pair are both eligible for Gateshead's fixture at home to Solihull Moors on Saturday (15:00 BST).
