- Young midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall joins Blackpool on loan
- The 21-year-old made his Leicester City debut against Brentford on Saturday
- Shepshed-born Dewsbury-Hall is a product of Leicester City’s Academy

The 21-year-old midfielder made his professional debut for the Foxes as a second half substitute in the 1-0 Emirates FA Cup win over Brentford at Griffin Park on Saturday after a fine first half of the campaign for Leicester City’s Development Squad.

Dewsbury-Hall has been a regular in Premier League 2 for City’s youngsters and was named the Club’s Development Squad Player of the Season for 2018/19 – a campaign that ended with him captaining an Under-21s side in the Hong Kong Sevens tournament last summer.

The Shepshed-born central midfielder has come through the ranks of Leicester City’s Academy and has continually caught the eye with a series of consistent and industrious displays from the middle of the park.

He will now continue his development with Simon Grayson’s Blackpool, who are currently 15th in League One ahead of away fixtures against promotion-chasers Wycombe Wanderers and Oxford United in the next week.
