Chesterfield have bolstered their attacking options following the arrival of Stoke City striker Adam Rooney on loan.
The 19-year-old frontman has agreed a four-month loan switch to Saltergate after struggling to break into the first-team picture at the Championship club.
The Irishman saw a similar loan spell with Yeovil Town towards the end of last season disrupted by injury.
"Adam went on loan to Yeovil last season, unfortunately it didn't turn out to be the best experience," Potters coach Mark O'Connor told the club's official website.
"Now Chesterfield have come in for him and we feel it will be a good move."
