Josh Kayode has joined Shrewsbury Town on a season-long loan after Rotherham United manager Steve Evans stated that “he wants to give it every inch of his heart to try to stay here.”
Signed shortly after his 17th birthday, the forward has yet to make an impact at the New York Stadium, and Evans’ surge of signings will make the task even more difficult.
Kayode has made only six league starts for the Millers since 2017, with his solitary goal coming against Wimbledon in February 2022.
He also scored against Crewe Alexandra in the Football League Trophy that season, as well as Morecambe in the League Cup the previous season. He also scored against Crewe Alexandra in the Football League Trophy that season, as well as Morecambe in the League Cup the previous season.
The news is not surprising given the Millers’ recent signings of forwards Jonson Clarke-Harris and Esapa Osong, as well as Cameron Dawson, Joe Powell, Joe Rafferty, Liam Kelly, Sean Raggett, Reece James, Zak Jules, Shaun McWilliams, Alex MacDonald, and Joseph Hungbo, but Evans had only recently removed Kayode from the transfer list.
“He’s intimated to me that he wants to give it every inch of his heart to try to stay here,” the guy from Scotland added. “Who Am I?
Am I to deny any player that? “I am not going to.”
