Cork City have announced the signing of England under 19 international Tobi Oluwayemi until the end of June.
The goalkeeper makes the move to Turners Cross from Glasgow Celtic as the Rebels prepare for their return to the League of Ireland Premier Division this season.
“I’m really happy to be joining Cork City,” the 19 year old said, speaking to the club’s website.
“I think this is a fantastic opportunity for me to do this. When I first heard that Cork City were interested, it was a move that I thought could be very good for me.
“I know Barry Coffey well from his time at Celtic, and he had a lot of good things to say about the club, about where the club want to go and the supporters. I am looking forward to getting over to Cork and meeting everyone.”
The Rebels will begin their Premier Division campaign at home to Bohemians on Friday, 17 February.
