Charlton Athletic to explore possibility of loaning out more players

To help some of its young players gain additional experience, Charlton Athletic is eager to send some of them outside of The Valley.

The opportunity is still there for the Addicks to offload individuals to non-league following the end of the transfer window earlier this month.

Scott has told London News Online: “We have got to look at where we are with some of our younger players. We need to see whether

there is National League loans or what the plan is. We can’t just collect players that aren’t going to contribute to this football club

“We have a lot of young, extremely talented players. Before moving on, they must enter the side and demonstrate their abilities.

Charlton keeping an eye on the future

Charlton wants to give potential players a route into their first-team in the future. They have recently witnessed individuals like Miles

Leaburn, Lucas Ness, and Tyreece Campbell enter the senior picture.

The London club have loaned out Aaron Henry to Crawley Town, Zach Mitchell to Colchester United and Oliver Hobden to Chatham

Town recently and Scott’s comments suggest more could head out the exit door over the coming weeks and months.

Loans away allow players to get some regular game time under their belts as opposed to playing just youth football which benefits

their development.

It has been a turbulent first month or so of the season for Charlton and they are already on their second manager in Michael Appleton

after they turned to the former Lincoln City man after deciding to sack Dean Holden.

The Addicks have picked up six points from their first six league fixtures and find themselves down in 17th position. They are back in

action this weekend with an away trip to current table toppers Stevenage as they look to hit some form now under their new boss.
