Torquay United loan Shaquile Coulthirst from Tottenham Hotspur

League Two's bottom club Torquay United have taken teenage striker Shaquile Coulthirst on loan from Tottenham Hotspur until the end of the season.

The 19-year-old comes into the Gulls squad to replace Enoch Showumni, whose loan deal has been terminated to allow him to join Plymouth Argyle.

Coulthirst made his only senior Spurs appearances in December 2013 when coming on as a substitute in the 4-1 Europa League victory over Anzhi Makhachkala at White Hart Lane.

He netted once in two games during a short spell at Leyton Orient earlier this term, and Torquay manager Chris Hargreaves will be hoping that Coulthirst can score the goals to aid their relegation fight.

United are six points adrift of safety with seven matches of the campaign remaining.
