Alfie Devine: Port Vale sign Tottenham Hotspur defender on loan

Port Vale have signed Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Alfie Devine on a season-long loan.

The England Under-20 international, 19, becomes Vale's 11th signing of the summer transfer window - and third on loan from a Premier League club.

"He's an exciting young player who shows a maturity beyond his years on the pitch," said Vale boss Andy Crosby.

"That comes as a result of the elite environments he has already experienced with Tottenham and England."

Devine becomes the third player to arrive in Burslem on a season-long loan from the top flight, following defender Kofi Balmer (Crystal Palace) and midfielder Oliver Arblaster (Sheffield United).
