Attacking midfielder Charlie Allen is preparing to embark on a new challenge after joining York City on a temporary basis. The talented winger has left Leeds United, joining the Minstermen on an initial one-month loan deal.
A Whites statement read: “The Under-21s midfielder has been in fine form over recent weeks, scoring in three out of his last four games for Scott Gardner’s side, whilst also helping the Whites to reach the Premier League Cup quarter-final in his latest appearance.
“Allen will now head to the Vanarama National League on a short-term loan to gain first team experience with the Minstermen, who are looking for a strong finish to the season under manager Neal Ardley.
“Everyone at Leeds United wishes Charlie the best of luck whilst he is away from the club.”
Allen moved to Elland Road on a permanent deal from Irish Premiership club Linfield while still a teenager. A tricky, direct winger, the 20-year-old has been capped six times at Under-21 level for Northern Ireland.
