The Republic of Ireland international made 33 appearances across two half-seasons and earned rave reviews.

“Connor’s an exciting player and the type of player that we’ve been missing this season," said Blackpool manager Simon Grayson.

"A lot of people speak highly about him and he’s had some good experience out in Slovakia, as well as internationally for Ireland at under-21 level.

"We’re looking for him to get on the ball, pick a pass and add something different to the squad.”

The Blackpool move is the 21-year-old's third loan move to the EFL, following spells at Portsmouth and Walsall, and he could make his debut when the Seasiders take on Lincoln City on Saturday.

“I like to get on the ball and try and make things happen," said Ronan.

"I’ll take risks in the opposite half, try and get a few assists and chip in with a few goals.

"All in all, I just want to help the team wherever I can and try and help the team get back to where it belongs.”
