Cheltenham have loaned in Wolves forward Eusebio Bancessi on an initial month's loan.
The 19-year-old Portuguese, who joined Wolves from Benfica in 2013 but is yet to make his first-team debut at Molineux, will go straight into the Robins' squad to face Shrewsbury on Saturday. "I have been after Eusebio for a while and I tried early in the season and again straight after Koby Arthur went back to Birmingham," Yates told the club's official website. "When we played Wolves in a training ground friendly, he scored and I spoke to Kenny Jackett and his staff about him. "I am delighted to bring him here and I'd like to thank Wolves for allowing it to happen because there was a lot of interest from League One and Two clubs. "He has lightning pace, a real eye for goal and he can make a really positive impact in our squad." Meanwhile, the Robins have confirmed that striker Terry Gornell, who scored his first goal for nearly a year against Bristol City on Wednesday night, has asked to be placed on the transfer list. A club have already declared their interest but Cheltenham's statement revealed that "the player has rejected the move."
