Darlington have today signed left back Nathan Newall on loan for the rest of the season from Sunderland.

Nathan, who is 21, has been playing regularly for Sunderland under 21s in Premier League 2, after joining them from Guiseley in National League North in the summer of 2021.

Here’s what manager Alun Armstrong has to say about the signing.

Nathan goes straight into the squad for Saturday’s home game with Spennymoor.

We would like to wish him all the best during his stay with us.

We would also like to thank Sunderland for their help and co-operation with the signing.
