Bristol Rovers secure Aaron Chapman loan signing

Chesterfield goalkeeper Aaron Chapman has signed for Bristol Rovers on a one-month loan deal.

The 25-year-old has made just one appearance for the Spireites since joining the club in May 2013.

Chapman, who featured three times on loan at Accrington Stanley last season, provides much-needed cover in goal for the League Two side.

Speaking to the Pirates' official website, boss Darrell Clarke said: "Aaron is a highly-rated young goalkeeper and I am pleased to be able to welcome him to the club and grateful to Chesterfield manager Dean Saunders for allowing him to come to the Memorial Stadium.

"With Kieran Preston and Will Puddy both out injured at the moment it was important that we added another goalkeeper to our squad and Aaron, who has enjoyed loan spells with Chester City and Accrington Stanley, will go straight into the squad for tomorrow's game at Yeovil."

Chapman played 46 games for non-League side Belper Town in 2012-13, before linking up with current club Chesterfield.
