Big Defender Loaned to Harriers

Giant defender Kyle Howkins has signed for Vanarama National League club....

....Kidderminster Harriers on a month`s loan from Barclays Premier League side West Bromiwch Albion.

The 19-year-old goes straight in to the squad for Saturday’s Emirates FA Cup Fourth Qualifying Round clash at Stourbridge having been given permission to play, and registered before today’s deadline.

Standing some 6`5”, the teenager has made rapid progress through the youth ranks at The Hawthorns and turned out for their under-21 side at the age of just 17.

Now ready for the cut and thrust of first-team action, he arrives at Aggborough keen to get started.

“It’s a big game coming up on Saturday in the FA Cup and I’m happy to be involved,” Howkins said. “Hopefully we can get a win and take that in to the league to get off the bottom of the table.

“It is a different challenge for me and I am looking forward to it; it’s a big step in my career; it’s going to be rough, physically and mentally.”
