Cliftonville Football Club has signed Dundee United goalkeeper, Brett Long, on loan.

He's expected to train with the squad this evening ahead of the sides friendly with Lisbellaw United on Saturday.

The 20-year-old was part of the development scheme at Solitude and has gone on to receive internatonal recognition at a number of underage levels.

Long left the Reds for Motherwell in 2013 ahead of his move to Tannadice last season.

Cliftonville boss Barry Gray said “He is an outstanding young goalkeeper and will bring additional strength to our panel. 

"We are grateful for the assistance of Dundee United in facilitating his loan to Cliftonville.

"Brett will join the team training this evening and will be in the squad for Saturday’s game at Lisbellaw."
