Brighton goalkeeper Robert Sanchez has joined Rochdale on a season-long loan deal.

The Spaniard was impressive in 17 appearances for League Two side Forest Green last season.

Goalkeeping coach Ben Roberts said: "Last season's loan move was beneficial for Rob, experiencing regular senior football, but his latest move will provide an even greater test in League One.

"It's exactly what Rob needs in order to take his game to the next level, and we'll be keeping tabs on his progress throughout the season, as he looks to make a good impression during his time at Rochdale."
