Mansfield Town’s Joe Fitzpatrick and Conor Green go out on loan deals

Fitzpatrick, who made three appearances for the Stags’ first team last season, previously enjoyed a one month loan spell at Sutton Coldfield earlier this season.

The 18-year-old will link up with Carlton until 2nd January.

Manager Adam Murray said: “Because of the performances of our midfielders, Joe has been unable to get a consistent opportunity in our first team.

“Joe is in need of game-time and this opportunity will allow him play five/six games heading into the Christmas period and come back stronger for the experience.”

Versatile defender Conor Green, who has not yet made his first team bow, will join Gresley until 28 December. Green, 18, had been on loan at Carlton for two months earlier this season.
