Two Deals Confirmed by Hereford

Hereford United have confirmed new loan deals for Josh Gowling and Sam Hewson.

Gowling, from Carlisle, has had his loan deal extended.

Hewson, from Manchester United, has joined on loan.

Both deals were expected (see Bulls News last Thursday and Friday) but the length of the loans haven't been disclosed, as yet, by the club.

Below is a profile of Sam Hewson taken from the Official Manchester United website:

Bolton-born Sam Hewson is a creative central midfielder who likes to get forward and score goals.

Combining an ability to break up opposition play and a talent to push forward and create chances, or indeed score himself, Hewson is an accomplished midfielder.

Sam made 24 appearances for the Academy Under-18s in 2005/06, scoring six goals. His impressive performances for Paul McGuinness’ side also earned him regular call-ups to United’s Reserves.

Hewson first started playing football at the age of six, kicking a tennis ball around in the school playground.

He was spotted two years later playing for his local team, AFC Bolton. After impressing in only his second match for the team, he was offered a trial at United and began training regularly at the club a year later, aged nine.

During his third season as an Academy scholar, 2007/08, Sam made sufficient impact in United's Reserves to be shortlisted for the Denzil Haroun Reserve Player of the Year. He was handed a Premier League squad number (33) at the beginning of the 2008/09 campaign

The club has also confirmed that both Robbie Threlfall and Andy Williams have left the club.

However there is no mention of Moses Ashikodi. It is presumed he has returned to Watford but confirmation is awaited.
