Harrogate Town have signed Blackburn Rovers forward Tom Bloxham and Southampton defender Derrick Abu on loan until the end of the season.

Bloxham, 18, scored on his senior debut for Rovers in their 8-0 win at the Sulphurites in the EFL Cup at the start of the season.

Abu, 20, came through Chelsea's academy and joined Saints last summer.

Both players could debut for Town, who are one point off the League Two play-off spots, at Stockport on Saturday.
