YORK City defender Sam Sanders has departed the club on a six-month loan deal to join Truro City.
Manager Michael Morton confirmed at the weekend that Sanders would be leaving York to find first-team football at the level below City, with the 21-year-old also extending his contract.
Sanders has joined newly-promoted Vanarama National League South side Truro, as he looks to find regular first-team minutes.
The 21-year-old joined York in the 2021/22 season on an initial loan deal from Nottingham Forest, before making the move permanent upon the expiry of his Forest contract.
He helped guide the Minstermen to promotion from the Vanarama National League North in that season, before featuring 20 times in the Vanarama National League after City's return to the fifth tier.
An injury in January meant that Sanders game time was limited, seeing the defender make the move to Vanarama National League North side Boston United on loan.
Sanders has also been a regular throughout pre-season, but with the additions of Tyler Cordner, Callum Howe, Kevin Joshua and the likes of Adam Crookes and Michael Duckworth, Morton feels Sanders would be better finding regular game time elsewhere.
