Premier Division strugglers Cork City have unveiled the signing of Charlie Lutz on a deal until the end of the season.
The 20-year-old attacker joins from Aston Villa’s Under-21 side.
He also had a spell on loan at Kidderminster and will join City on July 1 pending international clearance.
“I am really excited about the opportunity to play for Cork City," Lutz said.
"I know the manager well from his time at Aston Villa, and I am really looking forward to working with him again. I can’t wait to get in and begin training with the lads, and look forward to getting the opportunity to play in front of the City fans.”
City boss Gerard Nash added: “I’m delighted to welcome Charlie to Cork City.
"I worked closely with Charlie at Aston Villa where injuries unfortunately curtailed his opportunities to progress at a time when the club was moving forward at a great pace.
"He was in demand this summer across the UK and I am pleased he has chosen us as his next step."
