Carlisle United have snapped up Middlesbrough striker Danny Graham on an emergency loan deal.

The 21-year-old will remain at Brunton Park until the beginning of February and is looking forward to helping Neil McDonald's side reignite their play-off bid.

"I've noticed the team is on the up and currently not far off the play-offs, so it was an easy move for me, one that I couldn't turn down," Graham told Carlisle's official website.

"I just can't wait to get out there and play a few games and score a few goals for Carlisle.

"I've had a few loan moves before at Derby, Leeds and at the beginning of the season I was at Blackpool.

"That wasn't too successful, I only played one game, and the rest were substitute appearances.

"That just makes me more determined here though."
