Stoke's Agina joins Forest Green on loan

Forest Green Rovers have signed defender Sydney Agina on loan until January from Championship side Stoke.

The 18-year-old academy player has also agreed a new two-year contract extension to stay with the Potters.

Agina made five league appearances for Stoke in the closing stages of last season and also earned his first international cap for Kenya in a friendly last month.

"We believe further exposure to first-team football at a good level, on a consistent basis, is the logical next step for him to take," said Stoke director of football Jonathan Walters.
