AFC Wimbledon have completed the signing of defender Gavin Hoyte on a month's loan from Arsenal.

Hoyte, 21, arrives at Kingsmeadow having had previous loan spells at Watford, Brighton and Lincoln. Dons boss Terry Brown told the club's official website: "Gavin is obviously a very talented young player who is comfortable in either the centre or right-back position. "This deal will ensure we have cover and competition for places in all positions ahead of a very important period of the season." Hoyte, who has only made one league appearance for the Gunners, is available for Wimbledon's game at home to Aldershot on Saturday.
