Jake Doyle-Hayes has joined Cambridge United on loan until the end of the season.

Doyle-Hayes links up with Rushian Hepburn-Murphy at the Abbey Stadium, with former assistant manager Colin Calderwood adding a second claret and blue Young Lion to his ranks.

The central midfielder has been with us from the age of 15 and has progressed through the club’s academy system.

The 20-year-old has made three senior appearances and has also been a mainstay of the U23s.
