Pilgrims agree Gilbert deal

The 19-year-old is set to complete his move to Home Park next week with just the length of the loan deal to be sorted out.

Pilgrims boss Paul Sturrock admitted he is hoping to land the left back on a one-year deal.

"We've agreed a loan but the length of the loan spell is still to be agreed. We have got to tie the bits and pieces," Sturrock told the club's official website.

"Hopefully, he'll be a valuable asset to the squad. I was very tempted to give it a whole year, but I feel that sometimes young laddies can't settle or don't fit in, so the beginning of this will be a three-month loan.

"I'm hoping it will be a year. If it is a year, he will have been very successful for us and played a big part in our season. That's the aim."
