BRENTFORD have signed Everton defender Jake Bidwell on loan until January 8.

The Bees were desperate to bolster their backline following the loss of Miguel Llera and Blair Adams this week.

And boss Uwe Rosler has moved to plug the gap with the capture of England U19 international Bidwell.

The youngster came through the ranks at Goodison Park, and has made one senior appearance for the Toffees, in a Europa League game two seasons ago.
