Crystal Palace manager Neil Warnock wants to send England Under-19s defender Lee Hills out on loan but will wait until next month to do so.

Hills has made just one brief appearance for the Eagles this season - as a late substitute in the home win over Blackpool earlier this month - but Warnock will only consider letting the left-back gain first-team experience elsewhere after Palace's clash with Middlesbrough at Selhurst Park on November 7.

Warnock told the South London Press: "I was prepared to let Lee go out on loan three weeks ago, but at the moment I'm going to leave it until after the Middlesbrough game - unless everybody is fit.

"There are a number of clubs after him. I want to loan him to get some games, but it's got to fit in with us."
