Harrogate manager Simon Weaver said: “We’ve liked Simon for a while now, we knew about him last summer at Norwich and he’s gone and nailed it with his performances at Kings Lynn out on the right left, or up front.

“He’s a real pacy player who is very direct in his style and I think he will excite the supporters.”

Power could be handed a debut in Tuesday night's rearranged League Two home game with Exeter City.

Power joins up with fellow Canaries player William Hondermarck, with the midfielder having signed on loan for the rest of the campaign
