Southampton youngster Marcus Barnes has become Yeovil Town's fourth signing of the January transfer window.

The 21-year-old striker, who has four goals for the Saints' under-23s squad this season, arrives at Huish Park on loan for the rest of the season.

Barnes follows in the footsteps of fellow Southampton starlet Olufela Olomola in joining the Glovers from St Mary's in this campaign.

And his arrival is the third on a hectic day at Huish Park which has also seen the captures of Corey Whelan from Liverpool and Lewis Wing from Middlesbrough.

Barnes will be available to make his Glovers debut against Bradford City in the FA Cup on Saturday.

His signing brings the number of players that Yeovil manager Darren Way has at his disposal against the Bantams to 18.

Yeovil had begun their winter transfer business on Thursday when Jared Bird joined on loan from Barnsley.
