Oldham Athletic manager John Sheridan has solved his goalkeeping crisis by snapping up Richard O'Donnell from Sheffield Wednesday on a seven-day emergency loan deal.

The Latics had been struggling since Les Pogliacomi was forced to retire from the game earlier this year, and veteran shot-stopper Mark Crossley has now picked up an injury.

O'Donnell told the Owls' official website: "I've spoken to John Sheridan on the phone and I'm looking forward to meeting him and the team before the Luton Town match.

"It's been a funny one this season, not playing many competitive games, but I'm really looking forward to playing and just can't wait to get out there."
