2. Jack Baldwin - winner
The defender signed for Salford City on loan in League Two, becoming the latest piece in an exciting project led by Manchester United's Class of '92. He was going to be fifth choice centre-back at Sunderland. Photo: Jan Kruger
3. Ethan Robson - winner
The Houghton-born midfielder needs game time at a key point in his development, a loan to Grimsby Town provides Robson with a good opportunity to shine away from Sunderland. Photo: Frank Reid
4. Laurens De Bock - winner
The left-back was way down the pecking order at Championship Leeds United, dropping down into League One to get minutes under his belt will likely be a good move for the 26-year-old left-back. Photo: YORICK JANSENS
