Leeds United have signed Tottenham midfielder Jake Livermore on loan until the end of the season.

The 21-year-old's loan deal includes provision to stay on until May 31 should the club reach the Play-Offs.

Jake, a product of Tottenham's Academy, has made 44 career appearances and has had loan spells with Derby, Peterborough, and Ipswich. He played against Leeds earlier in the season for Ipswich at Portman Road.

United manager Simon Grayson said: "Jake is a hungry, young player who has gained good experience at this level with both Derby and Ipswich.

"We're at an important stage of the season and he gives us increased competition for places. He is a good addition to our squad."
