Portland Timbers loan Leicester City's Jack Barmby

MLS side Portland Timbers have secured the loan services of Leicester City midfielder Jack Barmby.

The 21-year-old has had previous temporary stints with Rotherham United and Notts County following his arrival at Leicester from Manchester United in 2014.

He will now go out on loan for a third time, having signed a deal with the Timbers until May.

"Jack is a young player with good upside that brings versatility and depth to our roster," head coach Caleb Porter told the club's official website.

"He is a left-sided player that can play either wing or left-back."

Barmby is the son of former England international Nicky.
