Shrewsbury bring in Temple Ojinnaka on loan

Shrewsbury Town are thrilled to announce the loan signing of Temple Ojinnaka - who arrives from Wolves.

The 20-year-old - who can play in midfield, at centre-back and at full-back - is our sixth addition of the January window.

Born in Italy, Temple joined Wolves aged 12 and has progressed through the academy ranks.

Standing at six foot two, the versatile player has been training with Salop over the past few days with the aim of earning a loan move.

Boss Michael Appleton said: "Temple is somebody I have been aware of for a while - Sean Parrish has also worked with him previously.

"He caught my eye in a game I watched earlier this season because he likes a tackle, he is a big presence and he can get across the ground.

"He played in midfield that day. I then spoke to Pash about him who said he can play in numerous positions.

"We kept an eye on him. We knew there was a possibility of getting him in for a few days, which we did.

"We then very quickly got to an agreement. We are delighted to have him on board."
