Manchester United defender Regan Poole is joining Northampton Town on loan for the season. 

Sportsmail revealed manager Justin Edinburgh's interest in May and the 19-year-old Wales U21 international defender has now agreed to team up with his former mentor.

Edinburgh gave Poole his league debut at Newport County and the centre-back hopes more competitive football can help speed up his development as he looks to make an impression on Jose Mourinho in the long term.
