Leeds duo Conor Shaughnessy and Lewie Coyle have completed loan moves away from Elland Road.
Republic of Ireland Under-21 international Shaughnessy has joined Scottish Premiership outfit Heart of Midlothian until the end of the 2018/19 campaign.
Shaughnessy, who has made 15 appearances for Leeds, has struggled for first-team football this season making just one appearance for the Whites against Preston in the Carabao Cup back in August.
The 22-year-old will be looking to get regular game time at Tynecastle Park as Hearts push for a top-three finish in the Scottish Premiership under former Scotland manager Craig Levein.
Coyle will spend the rest of the season at Fleetwood Town after signing an extension to his loan agreement.
The 23-year-old full-back spent the whole of last season at the Lancashire club and initially joined the Sky Bet League One side on a six-month loan deal again in the summer.
After again impressing during the first half of this season, featuring 29 times for the Cod Army, Coyle will now stay at Highbury Stadium until the end of the campaign to continue his development.
