When I got the interest of coming, I was all for it. I&#8217;m really happy to be here.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">&#8220;It&#8217;s come around quite quick, but when I heard about the interest I was really keen to get the deal done.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The youngster will look to have an immediate impact, too, as Lincoln square off against Fleetwood in search of a fourth win from six games.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Michael Appleton Equally Pleased at Signing\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Also speaking to the club website, Lincoln boss Michael Appleton gave his thoughts on the completion of the loan move, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weareimps.com\/news\/2020\/october\/201015-gottsigns\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">saying<\/a>: &#8220;Robbie\u2019s very versatile in terms of his ability to play in midfield or at full-back. He\u2019s got bags of quality in possession of the ball and he\u2019s got the energy and athleticism to get up and down the pitch too.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">&#8220;Overall though he\u2019s just another really good addition and the fact that it\u2019s his first loan away quite excites me too because he&#8217;s desperate to impress and desperate to impress his new teammates as well.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The completion of the deal leaves Lincoln in good stead for the season on the defensive front with Gotts a much-needed addition at the back when considering the Imps&#8217; lack of clean sheets thus far, keeping just the four in a handful of fixtures this season.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Main Photo<br \/>\n<a id=\"G9h4PdPLQMJ2cGrrDbsS1w\" 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\/1192243657\" 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:'G9h4PdPLQMJ2cGrrDbsS1w',sig:'qyvlxt9aNhDm4LrSZRCz0B7b-DKCvIA-c7d8G3TMZU4=',w:'594px',h:'372px',items:'1192243657',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>Robbie Gotts has officially completed a move to League One club Lincoln City, signing on a season-long loan.
