Cork City striker Danny Furlong has joined First Division side Waterford United on loan for the remainder of the 2013 season. Furlong has made 12 appearances for City since joining from Waterford's southeast rivals Wexford Youths at the beginning of the season.

Furlong certainly has a pedigree in the First Division, having finished joint top scorer in the league last season alongside Kevin McHugh and then Waterford United striker Seanie Maguire.

Cork City manager Tommy Dunne confirmed the deal, saying: “Danny has joined Waterford to get some game time, and I would like to wish him the best of luck there. Joining Waterford until the end of the season will give him the chance to get some good games in a competitive side that is fighting for promotion, and we look forward to monitoring his progress and bringing him back for the start of next season.”

Furlong joins Conor Meade at Waterford who signed from the other side from the Rebel county Cobh Ramblers earlier in the window.

City have now lost two strikers in 24 hours after Denis Behan left the club yesterday by mutual consent. Daryl Kavanagh could make it three with signs that he could sign for St Patrick's Athletic before the window closes.
