Football Insider has been informed by sources that Doncaster Rovers and Bolton Wanderers forward Conor Carty have agreed to a loan transfer.
The 21-year-old Carty just recently made his way back to Bolton following a fruitful loan at St Patrick’s Athletic in Ireland.
The youthful forward participated in both legs of the Irish club’s Europa Conference League qualifying match against F91 Dudelange and helped them win the FAI Cup during his time there.
Ireland’s Republic Carty, an Under-21 international, is not playing much for Bolton’s first team, therefore the League One contenders are willing to send him out on loan so he can obtain regular first-team experience.
Carty made his first-team debut against Tranmere after joining Bolton in the summer of 2022 on a free transfer from Wolves.
Throughout his tenure with the League One team, he has made a total of five appearances for Bolton.
Carty hasn’t been able to move up above strikers Victor Adeboyejo and Dion Charles in the standings, despite his encouraging debut.
Carty is currently scheduled to finalise his transfer to Doncaster, who are embroiled in a League Two relegation struggle.
Rovers have 24 points after 23 league games, one more than Salford and Colchester United behind them.
Rovers’ goal total in the league this season is tied only with Gillingham and Forest Green, and manager Grant McCann is eager to bolster his team’s offensive output in January.
Joining Carty will be Luke Molyneux and Joe Ironside in a striking department that aims to win League Two this season.
