JOHANN SMITH (DARLINGTON)

The News: Johann Smith, who was forced to miss the recent Under-20 World Cup with an injury suffered just days before leaving for Canada, will go on a one-month loan from Premier League side Bolton to League Two’s Darlington.

Of Note: The speedy winger, still rehabbing the third-degree sprain of his ankle, will look to gain experience and get back to match fitness during the loan, which includes options for extension. The move from Bolton is the second loan for the 20-year-old in two years, after appearing 14 times for Colchester United in the 2006-07 season.

Up Next: The Quakers, who have started the season nicely and sit in second place in the table, travel away to Bradford on Saturday.
