MOTHERWELL have completed the loan signing of attacker Mikael Ndjoli from Bournemouth until the end of the season, pending international clearance.
Ndjoli scored five goals in a season-long loan at Kilmarnock last season and spent the first half of this term on loan at Gillingham, where he scored three times in 18 appearances for the English League One side.
“Mikael is quick, strong and gives us an option all across the forward line,” manager Stephen Robinson told the Motherwell website. “He will immediately add competition for places.
“He’s already had experience of the Scottish league, which will be of benefit to us. Also, despite his age, he’s already been out on loan twice and got playing time.
“He’s already shown us the enthusiasm he has for this move since arriving on Monday.”
The 21-year-old says that the decision to come north once more was an easy one after being impressed by Motherwell during his stint at Rugby Park last season.
“I’m really keen to get started at Motherwell,” Ndjoli said.
“I’ve already seen how this club operates from my previous time in Scotland and I was immediately impressed again when I arrived on Monday.
“I can’t wait to get involved.”
