Bournemouth have signed Crawley striker Wes Thomas on a 93-day loan, with the view to making it a permanent move.

The 24-year-old, who only joined League Two Crawley in May from Cheltenham, has scored just one goal in eight games.

He told the Cherries website: "I'm looking forward to the challenge of playing in League One. It's something I should have done earlier in my career.

"I can't wait to start playing as I didn't feel I got a fair crack at it this season."
