“We’re obviously looking to replace Peter Kioso as soon as possible and he’s one of the names that was flagged up – he’s very highly-rated and has been recommended,” said manager Dave Challinor.
“He’s a good athlete with plenty of pace, much like the modern-day full-back and moving forward that’s how we want to play – with our full-backs pushing high up the pitch but also not forgetting their defensive responsibilities.
“It’s great to get him into the Club and, all things being equal, I am sure he will be a big hit so he’s someone we’re looking forward to working with.”
Southam-Hales will remain at Hartlepool United until the end of the season.
