The 20-year-old will be familiar to Pools fans having scored eight goals in 24 appearances for York City last season.

Fewster trained with Pools this morning at Maiden Castle and has been handed squad number 32.

Ineliible to play tomorrow night in the Checkatrade Trophy at Notts County the England Youth international will come into contention to play at Stevenage in League Two on Saturday.

"His movement is good and he’s a bit different from the other options we have in the squad so I’m delighted to get him.”
