Falkirk have completed the loan signing of Conor McLeon from English Championship side, Wolves.

Falkirk have had a busy window as they continue to bring in new faces, following the loss of so many key players such as Barney Stewart, Filip Lissah, Calvin Miller, and Dylan Tait.

Their new man hasn’t made a single professional appearance, having spent his early days at Wolves academy, but has had an impressive pre-season, which has earned the 19-year-old a new one-year deal at Wolves and caught the eye of John McGlynn.

McLeon scored a double in the opening game of the season for the U21s, netting a brace against Burnley.

The midfielder was sent out to get some game time at a professional level under his belt, with the on-loan Wolves man set to possibly make his professional debut against last season’s champions, Celtic.

John McGylnn spoke on the new signing:

“Conor is a winger, and he’s one that Allan Fraser watched towards the end of last season and he caught his eye, so we’ve followed him since then. He’s been doing really well in pre-season with Wolves. He scored a couple of goals against Burnley, which is great from his point of view.

He’s a skilful player that will take opposition players on in one vs one situations, and we feel he’s someone who will complement the team. He’s coming in to push for starts and to try to make a name for himself, like a lot of the players we’ve brought in in these positions have done.

He’s one that we’ve been doing a good bit of work on. We’re delighted to get him, we’re looking forward to working with him, and we welcome him to the football club.”
