Academy stopper Smith heads out on loan

Wolves Academy goalkeeper Jackson Smith has joined Kettering Town on loan until January.

The stopper has progressed through the club’s Academy over the past 12 years and featured in the under-23s’ PL2 play-off clash at Crystal Palace last season.

That appearance for James Collins’ side came after a first loan spell away at Frickley Athletic earlier this year.

Now he heads out for more experience with Kettering, who compete in the National League North and face Bradford Park Avenue tomorrow.
