Motherwell have announced the loan signing of Huddersfield forward Kallum Higginbotham until the end of the season.

Higginbotham, 23, previously spent two years at Falkirk, leaving a year ago, but has struggled to secure a regular place at Championship side Huddersfield and has subsequently been loaned out to Barnsley and then Carlisle.

The attack-minded player, whose deal is subject to "registration formalities", will add creativity to Stuart McCall's side following the sale of Jamie Murphy to Sheffield United.

Higginbotham told MFCTV: "I am really pleased and excited to be here and I want to thank the gaffer and all the players for making me feel so welcome."
