Crewe Alexandra have snapped up teenage Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Jake Livermore on a six-month loan basis.

The 18-year-old reserve team regular spent a month on loan with MK Dons last season and is relishing the prospect of further first-team action.

"The main thing is that I am 18 now and obviously looking to progress with my career," he told the club's official website.

"Getting some first-team football was my main objective and I know they play good football here at Crewe.

"They have a reputation for always willing to give youngsters a chance, so this is a perfect opportunity for me."
