Young Wolves attacker Ashley Hemmings has been allowed to join League One side Cheltenham on a month’s loan deal.

The 18-year-old will head to Whaddon Road in search of first-team experience, after penning a one-year pro deal at Molineux earlier this month.

Hemmings, who has already had a taste of first team football having been named as a substitute for the Championship defeat at Swansea in October, also spent a week at League Two side Bournemouth.

Now the teenage hitman will join up with the Robins and their manager Martin Allen, who revealed that Wolves had let him have the player at no cost to the club – such is the dedication to his development.

Allen said: “Wolves have done us a favour by letting us have him for nothing and he will be involved in the squad. Ashley is a very quick, left-footed centre forward who gets in behind defenders and scores goals.

“You have to pay big money to get goal scorers, but I know Ashley is a talented young player and I’m looking for him to add something to our team over the next few games.”
