Carlisle have re-signed Newcastle defender Macaulay Gillesphey on a half-season loan deal.

Gillesphey, 20, spent the whole of last season on loan with the Sky Bet League Two club and will return for a second spell until January 2, 2017.

"Macaulay is a young man who I think is going to have a very bright future," Carlisle boss Keith Curle told the club's official website.

"It's excellent that we can be part of his development. We're forging links with a fantastic football club in Newcastle United and Peter Beardsley. It shows they're happy with the development of their players when they come to us."
