SOUTHEND United have completed a loan swoop for Nottingham Forest winger Stephen McLaughlin.
The 24-year-old Irishman has signed for the Shrimpers until the end of the season.
And he will go straight into the squad for Saturday’s clash at play-off rivals Bury.
McLaughlin joined Forest from Derry City in deal believed to be worth around £160,000 at the start of 2013.
He has so far made 12 appearances for Forest’s first team and also spent time on loan with their near neighbours Notts County this season.
McLaughlin played 16 times while with the Meadow Lane club and scored one goal.
