Swindon Town have confirmed that midfielder Liam Kinsella has left the club.
Reports surfaced online on Tuesday linking the 27-year-old to League One's Cheltenham Town, indicating that the move was already a done deal and the player had completed a medical.
Darrell Clarke's post-match comments following his side's 1-0 loss to Bolton on Tuesday also stoked the flames, with the Cheltenham manager all but confirming Kinsella's acquisition.
But on Wednesday afternoon, Swindon Town confirmed that Kinsella, who has made 22 appearances since joining last summer, has moved to the Gloucestershire side a division above.
A spokesperson for Swindon Town said: "Swindon Town can confirm Liam Kinsella has left the club and joined League One side Cheltenham Town, subject to EFL approval.
"The 27-year-old midfielder has made 22 appearances for Town since joining the club last summer from boyhood club Walsall and now looks for a new challenge in Gloucestershire in the division above.
"He now moves to League One side Cheltenham, who currently sit 22nd in the division.
"We would like to take this opportunity to thank Liam for all his efforts during his time with us and wish him all the very best for the future."
