Crystal Palace midfielder Stuart O’Keefe has joined Blackpool on loan for a month as the loan window for Football League clubs around the country slams shut at 5pm.
The 22-year-old joined the Eagles from Southend United in August 2010 but has failed to make an impact since his two appearances at the start of the season in the Premier League. His first appearance was off the bench in the final few minutes at the Emirates Stadium in Palace’s 2-1 defeat before starting against West Ham at Selhurst Park where he played 83 minutes in the 3-1 defeat.
Making 50 appearances for Crystal Palace, O’Keefe has scored one goal; the midfielder has also scored one goal in his nine appearances for the Eagles’ U21s side. The midfielder will be out on loan until 1st January 2015.
