Brighton goalkeeper James Beadle has joined Crewe Alexandra on loan until the end of the 2022/23 season.
The 18-year-old signed a new three-and-a-half-year deal on Tuesday and joins a Crewe side currently 17th in League Two.
Brighton Under-21s head coach Shannon Ruth said, This is a great move for James. It presents a real opportunity to play regular senior football and to understand the pressures of fighting for three points every week.
We will be closely monitoring his progress throughout his time there and wish him well for the rest of the season."
