Hartlepool United are delighted to welcome goalkeeper George Evans to the Club on loan from Millwall, subject to FA approval
The 20-year-old comes into the Pools squad and is set to make his debut against York City on Saturday 4th October.
Evans made four appearances for the Lions in the 2024-25 season, as well as spending time on loan at Sutton United in the National League.
On arriving to the Club, Evans said: “I’m absolutely delighted to be here, it’s a great opportunity for me to play and be part of a great Club.
“It’s been a busy 24 hours.
“Yesterday morning, I heard there could be a chance, and then it moved on swiftly with help from both Clubs coming together and putting everything into place.
“I’ll be trying my best to help those around me and build bonds with players and staff to get a better understanding to get the best out of myself and the team.
“I can’t wait to get out there, tomorrow it will be a good game against tough opposition, and the team are ready to give it everything.”
Pools boss Simon Grayson said:
“We are grateful to Millwall for allowing George to come here.
“He was very keen to come here, which helps.
“Playing games in the Championship is a fantastic pedigree to have.
“We got straight on the phone to him, and he couldn’t wait to get here.
“A really good kid, and a good goalkeeper.”
The arrival of Evans coincides with the termination of Harvey Cartwright’s loan at the Club.
After an injury on Wednesday against Carlisle United, results show that he will be unavailable for selection long-term.
Cartwright will return to Hull City and continue his recovery.
Everyone at Hartlepool United would like to thank Harvey for his contribution to the Club this season, wishes the best and a speedy recovery.
