Chester FC winger Kane Richards has joined National League North side Gainsborough Trinity on a month's loan, subject to league clearance.

The Blues made Richards available for loan in November after the 21-year-old, signed from Ilkeston in December last year, failed to nail down a regular spot in Steve Burr's side.

Richards, who began his career with Derby County, will now link up with Steve Housham's mid-table Gainsborough side, who include former Chester players Darryn Stamp and Nathan Jarman in their ranks.

Richards has made 10 appearances so far this season and has scored once, heading home the third goal in the 3-2 win over cross-border rivals Wrexham in October.
