Nuneaton Town sign Leicester City striker Simonas Stankevicius

Nuneaton Town have snapped up Leicester City striker Simonas Stankevicius on a two-month loan.

The 19-year-old striker has not played at senior level for his parent club but has earned six full international caps.

"We are delighted to welcome Simonas to Boro," Nuneaton chairman Lee Thorn told the club website.

"He arrives with plenty of pedigree, is a powerful target man with a great awareness, physical presence, and a killer instinct in front of goal."

Stankevicius could face England in a European Championship qualifier at Wembley in March.
