Yeovil have signed goalkeeper John Sullivan on a month-long loan from Millwall.
The 22-year-old impressed Glovers boss Terry Skiverton with his performance in Darren Way's benefit match - a 3-2 victory over a Manchester United XI - on Saturday before arriving on a temporary basis at Huish Park.
A statement on Yeovil's official website read: "Everyone at Huish Park would like to welcome John to Somerset and hope he enjoys his stay here.
17-3-11: Millwall keeper John Sullivan has joined Charlton on a one-month emergency loan.
Millwall boss Kenny Jackett told the News Shopper: "John Sullivan is a talented young goalkeeper but is behind two experienced keepers here and hasn't had too many opportunities.
"Charlton are looking to improve their goalkeeping options and the goalkeeping coach there Ben Roberts knows him very well from when they worked together at Yeovil earlier in the season.
"John is going there for a month and hopefully he gains some experience and gets some games.
"I haven't insisted he will play.
"It is a situation where he isn't even on the bench here so how he does at Charlton or whether they select him or not is obviously down to them."
Charlton acted swiftly in the following transfer window to bring Sullivan to the club on permanent basis after a string of impressive performances, securing a two year deal on 31 May 2011.
