Primarily a winger, Lokilo has become the fourth signing of the January window for Rovers.

A product of the Anderlecht youth academy, Lokilo switched to Palace in the summer of 2015.

The Belgium-born 21-year-old made his full senior debut for Palace in September 2017 but that stands as his only appearance so far.

Lokilo spent last season on loan with Lorient in the French second tier, making five appearances.

His signing came after the registration cut off point, making him ineligible to make his debut against Fleetwood Town on Saturday.

Lokilo's addition means Rovers have six loan players on their books. Clubs are permitted to name only five loan signings in any single matchday squad.
