Scunthorpe United have agreed a deal to sign Liverpool youngster Jack Hobbs on loan.
The 19-year-old defender or midfielder has joined the Championship club until the end of the season.
United were forced into the transfer market after discovering Shelton Martis' loan stay at Glanford Park from West Bromwich Albion would not be extended beyond this weekend.
Hobbs has made five appearances for the Liverpool first team, including the Carling Cup quarter-final defeat at Chelsea in December.
The promising youngster was also a part of the Reds' successful FA Youth Cup winning side of 2006.
