Ex-Hatters starlet Woodrow joins Southend on loan

Former Hatters starlet Cauley Woodrow has joined League Two Southend United on a month’s loan from Premier League Fulham on transfer deadline day.

The 18-year-old striker left Luton in 2011 after becoming the first non-league player since 1974 to win a full England age-group cap at U17s level.

Shrimpers boss Phil Brown said: “We’re pleased to have Cauley here.

“He’s someone I’ve seen play and is maybe what we’re missing in terms of striking options.

“He applied himself really well during training today and I’m sure he’ll do well during his time with Southend United. He’s with us for a month to begin with before we assess the situation.”
