Charlton youngster makes National League loan

Charlton young defender Nathan Asiimwe has joined National League side Hartlepool on a short-term deal.

The 19-year-old is heading away from The Valley on his first senior loan spell after racking up 25 senior appearances.

Asiimwe, who has three Charlton first-team assists to his name, has not been named in the matchday squad in League One this season under Nathan Jones.

Hartlepool are 11th in the National League.

Boss Darren Sarll said: “Nathan has been a long time coming. We thank Andy Scott and Charlton Athletic, and Nathan’s representative for being really patient and accommodating.

“In Nathan, we have another fantastic athlete who again shows that we are trying to learn as the games unfold.

“In the absence of Luke Charman, the ability to replenish the width in the team was a challenge, and with Nathan, we have cover for both flanks and even full-back positions.

“I expect with Nathan’s League One experience and his hunger and desire to break back into Charlton’s first team, we will be the recipient of a very good player.”
