Swindon Town sign Keshi Anderson on a permanent deal from Crystal Palace

Swindon Town have made the loan deal of Keshi Anderson a permanent one, as the forward signs a two-and-a-half year contract from Crystal Palace.

Anderson initially signed for Swindon on the summer deadline day last August on a loan deal until January 13, but after impressing in his first few months at the club, Town have made the move a permanent one.

Forward Anderson has scored four goals and assisted three in his time in Wiltshire so far.

He began his career at non-league Barton Rovers and scored 26 goals in 41 games before he was snapped up by Premier League Crystal Palace.

Since then, he has had loans at Doncaster, Bolton, and Northampton, all in League One, before he dropped down to League Two with Swindon.

Anderson's contract was due to expire at Palace at the end of this season.

In a statement, Anderson said: 

"At the moment there wouldn't be any other place that I would rather be.

"I've enjoyed my time here so far and with the way it is going hopefully we can keep pushing on and get promotion, which is what all the boys want.

"It was 100% an easy decision.

"I've been getting on with all the boys, the staff and everyone in and around the football club and it is always nice knowing you've got a home somewhere.

"This is where I want to be."
