Seagulls prospect joins Shrewsbury on loan

Brighton academy talent Jack Hinchy has moved to League One Shrewsbury Town on loan until the end of the season.

The 21-year-old featured in the Seagulls' 4-2 FA Cup win over Stoke City last month and is highly-rated at the south coast club. 

Technical director David Weir said: "This is a great opportunity for Jack to be involved regularly in a senior first-team environment and hopefully get a chance to play a part for Shrewsbury in the second half of the season."

"As our under-21s captain he's been really important in the team that reached the quarter-finals of the EFL Trophy. Now it's about taking that next step on his development pathway. We wish him well for his time with Shrewsbury."
