Sutton sign Leicester defender Amartey on loan

Sutton United have signed defender Bobby Amartey on a short-term loan deal from Leicester City until the end of November.

The 20-year-old academy player joined the Foxes at under-13 level and made his debut for both the U18s and U21s when he was 16.

The Ghana youth international played three matches for Leicester's U21s in the Football League Trophy in 2023-2024, earning a first professional contract.

Sutton United have made a solid start to their latest National League campaign, winning four of their opening six matches to sit fifth in the table with 12 points.

Earlier this week, they also added 20-year-old former Brighton & Hove Albion academy midfielder Joe Knight on a three-month loan deal from League One club Stevenage.

The U's host Scunthorpe United in the league on Saturday (15:00 BST).
