Josh Coburn has joined League One side Bristol Rovers on a season-long loan. 

The 19-year-old striker scored five goals in a breakout 2021/22 campaign, including the winner against Tottenham Hotspur in the Emirates FA Cup sixth round. 

Coburn suffered a knee injury which has ruled him out since the opening day draw against West Brom. 

He will remain at Rockliffe in the short-term to work on his rehab before heading to the South West looking to build on his fledgling career with regular minutes for Joey Barton's side. 

Everyone at MFC wishes Josh the best of luck for the rest of the season.
