The striker arrives as Swindon\u2019s fourth January signing.<\/p>\n<h2>Swindon Town Sign Striker Admiral Muskwe<\/h2>\n<h3>The Deal<\/h3>\n<p>Swindon announced <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swindontownfc.co.uk\/news\/2020\/january\/admiral-muskwe-signs-on-loan-from-leicester-city\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">via their website<\/a> they had signed the striker. Muskwe arrives on loan for the remainder of the season determined to fire Swindon into League One.<\/p>\n<p>Muskwe arrives alongside Hallam Hope who joined the Robins last week. Both have come in to fill the goal void left by Eoin Doyle and Jerry Yates. Thirty-five goals were taken from Swindon after Doyle and Yates were recalled by their parent clubs.<\/p>\n<p>Muskwe has been a regular for Leicester\u2019s U23s, scoring ten goals this season \u2013 three of those being in the Leasing.com Trophy.<\/p>\n<p>He is highly thought off at Leicester and his parent club will be hoping he gets the necessary game time and experience while at Swindon.<\/p>\n<p>He is a Zimbabwe international making four appearances for the country of his birth. Muskwe has been an integral part of the Under 23s success at Leicester this season. The Foxes sit second in the Premier League 2.<\/p>\n<p>His impressive performances earned him a nomination for December\u2019s player of the month in the Premier League 2.<\/p>\n<p>The 21-year old\u2019s arrival is a major boost to the League Two leaders, and he will hope he can fire them to promotion. Richie Wellens\u2019 attacking philosophy will certainly suit the pacey striker.<\/p>\n<p>He is raring to go but will not feature in tonight\u2019s game against Colchester United but is eligible for their crucial top of the table clash with Exeter City on Saturday.<\/p>\n<h3>What Was Said<\/h3>\n<p>Speaking to the Swindon website about his move, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swindontownfc.co.uk\/news\/2020\/january\/admiral-muskwe-signs-on-loan-from-leicester-city\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Muskwe said<\/a>: \u201cI\u2019m raring to go. I like the style of play here \u2013 it\u2019s attacking, and I think that will suit me. I\u2019m just eager to get going and try and help the team.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Main Photo<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"d51iBCjEQ3p8xlyNiXKFtg\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.co.uk\/detail\/1192408764\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'d51iBCjEQ3p8xlyNiXKFtg',sig:'L1k_TL4GFf5NExbi0m8IkWBEuklmpKNHQLUBHrnE6xE=',w:'594px',h:'349px',items:'1192408764',caption: true ,tld:'co.uk',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>League Two leaders Swindon Town have signed striker Admiral Muskwe on loan from Leicester City for the rest of the season.
