Former Carlisle United deadline-day signing Mitchell Roberts is back on the move.

The ex-Blues loan defender has joined Solihull Moors on loan from Birmingham City.

It is a second January move in successive years for the 22-year-old, who spent the second half of last season at Brunton Park.

He had a loan spell earlier this season with Oldham Athletic but now heads to Neal Ardley's fellow National League outfit.

Roberts told the Solihull website: "I’m really excited to get going, the standard’s been really good in training and I’m feeling ready.

“As soon as I knew about the interest from Solihull Moors, I just wanted to come to be honest, it’s a great chance for me to play a lot of matches and help the team."

He is the second ex-Carlisle man to join the 12th-placed club in recent days after Moors snapped up striker Mark Beck from Darlington.

Roberts was one of a cluster of deadline-day arrivals at Carlisle in the final hours of the Januay 2022 window.

He went on to make six appearances under Keith Millen and Paul Simpson.
