Cheltenham Town have signed Everton and England Under-20 goalkeeper Russell Griffiths on loan until 2 January.

Griffiths, 20, spent 2015-16 on loan at National League side Halifax before signing an extended deal at Everton.

He is eligible to play in Cheltenham's first game of the League Two season at home against Leyton Orient on 6 August.

Manager Gary Johnson, who previously said he wanted a new defender and keeper, signed versatile Aston Villa defender Easah Suliman on Thursday.
