Hide AdPlaymaker made the temporary switch to Belgium’s second tier towards the end of August and made his debut in a 1-1 draw with RFC Seraing, playing 72 minutes before being replaced by Daniel Perez. It was De Kustboys’ first point of the campaign but they remain bottom of the Challenger Pro League.
EJ Johnson, Austin FC II
Versatile winger joined up with MLS Next Pro side Austin FC II and has helped them to third in the Western Conference and qualification for the play-offs. Johnson has played 18 times, starting eight times and scoring once.
Nohan Kenneh, Shrewsbury Town
The defensive midfielder has played seven times for the Salop, starting six league games and one Carabao Cup tie against his former club Leeds. They have been consistently inconsistent, winning three matches but following each game up with a loss. The 20-year-old earned praise from manager Matt Taylor after a narrow defeat by Lincoln, who said: “He’s done well. Nohan will be a big player for us this season, he knows that and he’s aware of that.”
Dan MacKay, Livingston
The winger, who featured in Hibs’ Europa Conference League defeat by Inter Club d’Escaldes in Andorra, has played just four times for loan side Livi, totalling just 14 minutes’ worth of sub appearances.
