Championship side AFC Bournemouth have loaned striker Jake Scrimshaw to Scunthorpe United until the completion of the League Two season.
The 20-year-old is yet to make his debut for his parent club but has played senior football at fourth-tier level with Walsall and Newport County.
He scored four goals in 32 games across the two stints last season.
"He's a centre forward who wants to play on the shoulder and run in behind," Iron boss Neil Cox said.
"[And he] wants to be in the penalty box to score goals. We'll be patient with him and encourage him but I'm sure he'll be an excellent signing for us.
