YORK City have signed teenage Middlesbrough centre-back Ben Gibson on loan.
The Nunthorpe-born defender, nephew of Boro chairman Steve Gibson, has made only one first-team appearance for the Riverside Stadium outfit as a substitute last season.
The England Under-18s international had a 13-game loan spell at Plymouth earlier this term.
