Swindon Town defender Pharrell Johnson has completed a loan move to National League South outfit Truro City until the end of the season.

Johnson joined Town last January from Nottingham Forest having come through the academy ranks at the City Ground.

He made his debut off the bench against Bradford City last season but would suffer an injury shortly after his arrival that would see his campaign cut short.

After playing much of pre-season with the starting side, Johnson has not been in the matchday squad for any of the first four games of the season and now gets the chance to prove himself in the sixth tier.

The 20-year-old will move to the most Southerly club in the top six divisions of English football and hopefully get a run of games to help him continue his transition into senior football and could make his debut this weekend when they play host to Chelmsford City.

Three wins from their opening four has Truro fourth in the National League South so far under manager John Askey as they look to improve on last season's 16th place finish, having returned to the level the previous campaign following promotion from the Southern League.
