Notts County announce permanent signing of Crystal Palace midfielder Noor Husin

Notts County have announced the permanent signing of Crystal Palace midfielder Noor Husin on a one-and-a-half-year deal.

The 20-year-old came through the Reading academy, going on to make his senior football bow during a loan spell at Hemel Hempstead Town.

Husin, who was born in Afghanistan, then moved to Selhurst Park from the Madejski in August 2016.

Last season he spent time on loan in League Two, scoring once in 11 appearances for Accrington Stanley - incidentally against Notts.

"I've come from a Premier League club but this has all the attributes to hopefully get there one day," Husin told the official Magpies site.

"I'm delighted to be able to help the club try to achieve its ambitions. It's a massive club with good support so everything about it excites me.

Husin will be in contention for Saturday's meeting with Lincoln City and he added: "I was made aware of the game and how big it is. Hopefully we can win and stay up there in the automatic promotion places.

"It's not going to be easy. Lincoln are doing well, but I'm sure the boys will be doing all they can to get a good result.

"Hopefully I can show the gaffer I should be involved and, if I get on the pitch, I'll be looking to help the team in any way I can and hopefully get three important points for the fans."
