Brighton & Hove Albion midfielder Jake Forster-Caskey has joined Milton Keynes Dons on a one-month loan deal.*
The 21-year-old will link up with his new team-mates tomorrow, although he is cup-tied for the Dons’ Capital One Cup tie with Southampton on Wednesday night.

Albion boss Chris Hughton told seagulls.co.uk, “Jake has found first-team opportunities hard to come by this season because of the performances of other players in the team.
*
“A young, hungry player like Jake wants and needs to be playing regularly. This move not only gives him that chance, it also keeps him playing in the Championship, so when he returns he will be match sharp and will have gained even more experience at this level.
*
“People forget because of how long he has been here that Jake is still young, and he needs to be getting game time for his development and general fitness.”
