FOREST GREEN are looking to farm out one of their talented young goalkeepers.
Merchant,18, is part of Scott Bartlett's academy, but too old to play in Under-18 matches.
The former Newent Community schoolboy, who was part of the Forest Green squad that defeated Weston-super-Mare 5-3 last night, is looking to play at a Southern League or Hellenic League club.
He had a short spell at Slimbridge earlier in the season and was also close to joining Cinderford Town.
To discuss a potential move for Luke, contact Forest Green goalkeeping coach Steve Hale on 07711 275526 or steve.hale@fgrfc.com
