SWINDON Town will tomorrow finalise the loan capture of Stephen Darby.
The Liverpool full-back has agreed a deal which will see him stay at the County Ground until the end of the season.
Robins boss Danny Wilson has acted to bolster his defence after the recent back-to-back defeats to play-off contenders Bristol Rovers and MK Dons.
And Wilson announced to the media this afternoon a deal has been agreed with Liverpool regarding the temporary switch, whilst the player trained with the Town squad for the first time this morning.
Darby has impressive pedigree and has already tasted Premiership and Champions League action with Rafael Benitez's side this season.
The paperwork for the deal will be completed in the morning, and Darby will be included in Town's squad for Saturday's trip to Brighton.
Wilson said: “We’ve brought him in until the end of the season, which I am absolutely delighted with.
“He’s a quality player as you can imagine, coming from the Academy at Liverpool.
“Stephen has played first team football, knows the ropes and has been brought up in a very professional environment. We can only benefit from it.”
