City have completed the signing of forward Bailey Cadamarteri on a season-long loan from Sheffield Wednesday.

The 19-year-old forward, who featured 23 times for the Owls in the Sky Bet Championship last year, adds another dimension to City's attacking options.

He said: "I've spoken with Jez George and the gaffer and feel like this is the right place for me to be to develop.

"I'm looking forward to showing the Imps fans what I can do. I was here for the game against Barnsley. The fans were brilliant in that match, they got behind the lads even when they were behind, and I can't wait to have them right behind me."

Head coach Michael Skubala added: “Bailey adds a set of qualities that we’ve been looking for this summer to add to our forward options with top end pace, power and a threat in behind.

"We need a strong department at the top end of the pitch for all types of opponent across three competitions with so many games. We feel that Bailey can make a real impact in League One. He has joined us for all the right reasons and we are really looking forward to working with him.”
