Leyton Orient have signed teenage Swansea forward Ryan Hedges on a month-long loan deal.

Hedges, who can play as a winger or a striker, could go straight into manager Fabio Liverani's squad for Friday night's League One game against Preston at Deepdale. The 19-year-old said via his official Twitter account: "Delighted to have signed for @leytonorientfc on loan for a month. Can't wait to get started hopefully with a win" Hedges has yet to play for the Swansea first-team but has scored five goals for the club's Under-21 side this season to help lift them to the top of the Pro Development League Two South table.
