Boateng and Kaikai join Crawley Town on loan

Crawley Town have signed Ghana youngsters Sullay Kaikai and Hiram Boateng on loan from Crystal Palace.

The English-born Ghanaian youngsters officially joined the League One club when the loan window re-opened Saturday.

“Hiram is excellent on the ball and strong in the tackle and Sullay is a very lively presence up front,” Crawley boss John Gregory stated after finalising the deal.

Boateng has made two senior appearances for the Eagles, while Kaikai is still awaiting his senior debut for the Premier League club.

"Tony [Pulis, Crystal Palace manager] has allowed them to come here to get experience and game time - and they will definitely get that with the number of matches we have coming up," Gregory added.

"I'm sure they are going to prove to be very good additions to our squad as we approach a very busy time of the season."
