Huddersfield Town have signed goalkeeper Matty Young on a season-long loan from Sunderland. Young has spent the last two seasons on loan in League Two with Salford City, playing 77 games for the Ammies.
What does this mean for Huddersfield Town?
The signing of Young is a significant boost to the Terriers' squad ahead of their League One campaign. Huddersfield sporting director Chris Markham said Matty is one of the most highly rated young goalkeepers in the country.
Why was Young signed?
Young follows Ashley Fletcher in joining the Terriers, as the club looks to strengthen its squad. Last season, the 19-year-old kept 15 clean sheets for Salford, while he has been given a contract at parent club Sunderland until 2030.
What comes next for Young?
Young will look to make an impact at Huddersfield Town, competing for a starting spot in the team. The young goalkeeper has already gained valuable experience playing for Salford City, and will be looking to build on that this season.
