Wes Foderingham

Young Crystal Palace keeper Wes Foderingham has signed for Swindon on loan until January.

Foderingham joined the Eagles from Bromley in August last year but is currently third choice behind Julian Speroni and Lewis Price.

The 20-year-old got first team action on loan at non-league Histon in March and Swindon manager Paolo di Canio wants him to challenge his goalkeepers for a starting place.

Foderingham confirmed the switch on his Twitter page, saying: "All done, officially signed for Swindon Town FC on loan until January... Di Canio is ledge!"

Di Canio said: "I like him as a goalkeeper. I spoke to him and he's excited to sign for us.

"As usual when I sign a player I look in their eyes and say 'I like you, you are quality' but obviously I don't promise a place to anybody. I want him to accept the challenge with Mattia Lanzano and Phil Smith."

Foderingham was a product of Fulham's Academy but has yet to make a first team appearance for Palace.
