Sheffield United have allowed midfielder CJ Hamilton to join Gateshead on loan until the start of 2016.
The move represents Hamilton's second spell in the National League this season after previously playing six times for Halifax Town, who were then managed by new Gateshead boss Neil Aspin.
Hamilton has also spent time in the National League North with Gainsborough, but he is yet to make a first-team appearance for his parent club.
The 20-year-old is expected to feature when Gateshead host Chester FC on Saturday afternoon.
