Sunderland's superbly named Lynden Gooch is set to make his debut for Doncaster Rovers against Fleetwood Town, after confirming a one-month loan spell from the Premier League outfit.

The 20-year-old striker had a temporary stay with Gateshead last season, when he scored just once in seven games, and August's Premier League Under-21 Player of the Month is raring to go in South Yorkshire.

"I like to play in the No. 10 role just behind the main striker; I hope I can bring quality to the team with lots of goals, that's what my game is," he said. "I'm really excited at the potential of making my Football League debut on Saturday - I can't wait."
