Doncaster Rovers have completed the loan signing of defender Andy Boyle until the end of the 2017/18 campaign.

The 26-year-old arrives from Sky Bet Championship side Preston North End, having made 12 appearances for the Lillywhites since joining them in January 2017.

The Republic of Ireland international is ready to go straight into Darren Ferguson's plans for the game against Portsmouth this weekend.

Boyle said: "I'm really looking forward to coming here and getting some game time, I want to play as many games as possible and try to climb higher in the table.

"I'm fit and ready and if the manager picks me, it makes it easier that we've got a game coming up straight away and it's a big game to have as my debut."

You can see Andy Boyle in action at the Keepmoat Stadium against Charlton Athletic on Saturday February 10. Purchase your tickets from the Club Doncaster Box Office, on 01302 762576 or at tickets.clubdoncaster.co.uk.
