Blanchett excited after sealing Alex switch
Crewe have completed the signing of Danny Blanchett on a 12-month deal.
The left-back, 22, who was released by Peterborough at the end of last season, has featured in three pre-season friendlies for Alex including the 1-0 win over West Ham on Tuesday night.
He told the club`s official website: "I am ecstatic and words cannot describe what it means to sign a deal at a club like Crewe.
"It is brilliant for me. I knew other clubs were interested but once I knew Crewe wanted me there was only one place I wanted to go.
"It is a great club to play your football and there is not better place in the lower leagues to come and develop as a footballer.
"Everyone knows about Dario Gradi`s track record working with young players and moving them on. It is a great opportunity for me."
