DUNFERMLINE have completed their second signing of the January transfer window with a loan move for forward Brad Holmes.
The 21-year-old has agreed a switch from Blackpool until the end of the season, and could make his debut when Greenock Morton visit KDM Group East End Park on Saturday.
His arrival follows that of central defender, Malachi Fagan-Walcott, who made his debut for the Pars during Saturday's stalemate at Dundee United after joining from Cardiff City earlier this month.

Holmes made his first start for the Seasiders, from whom current Pars loanee, Owen Moffat, joined earlier in the season, in May 2021, in a win over Bristol Rovers.
That summer, he signed his first professional contract with the English Football League (EFL) League One outfit, and went on to have loan spells with FC United of Manchester, Chorley and AFC Fylde.

He is set to join his new team-mates tomorrow (Wednesday) ahead of this weekend's match.
