Leyton Orient have signed Southend midfielder Gary Hooper on loan until the end of the season.
Hooper, 19, joins the O's after falling out of the first-team picture at Roots Hall in recent weeks.
Former Grays player Hooper made 18 Championship appearances this season, mainly from the bench.
Boss Steve Tilson told Southend's website: "He's a good young player but he needs to gain experience and a move is good for him and us."
