Last updated : 08 November 2006 By Andy Van Hagen
Shrewsbury Town have signed Leo Fortune-West on loan from Rushden and Diamonds. Fortune-West has joined the Shrews until January with the option of extending his stay to the end of the season. He was recalled from a loan at Torquay to complete the move after impressing Shrews boss Gary Peters in Torquay's league fixture against Shrewsbury in late October.

Fortune-West has failed to find the net this season in 4 starts and 8 substitute appearances. He has represented both Rushden and Diamonds and Torquay United.
