Manchester City have sent new signing Erik Palmer-Brown on-loan to Belgium.

City snapped up the American defender from Sporting Kansas City before the winter market and are now sending him to KV Kortrijk.

Palmer-Brown will spend the remainder of the season with Kortrijk, though his spell could be extended into next term.

The 20 year-old defender was part of the USA's run to the U20 World Cup quarterfinals last year.

Palmer-Brown is on a four-and-a-half year deal with City.
