Burton Albion have signed West Bromwich Albion defender Zac Ashworth on loan for the rest of the season.
A left-back who can also play further forward, Ashworth has been with the Baggies since the age of 10.
The 20-year-old made his debut in an FA Cup tie with Brighton last January and played two Championship games towards the end of last season.
"As soon as I knew Burton were interested, I was really keen to get it over the line," Ashworth said.
Ashworth has played three games in cup competitions for West Brom this season and is also a Wales Under-21 international.
"Zac is a player we've monitored for a while," Burton boss Dino Maamria told the club website.
"He can cover the left-back and left-wing back positions and he's hungry for first-team football. He's played at Championship level and I'm sure he'll add quality to the left-hand side of the pitch for us."

Why should a man go to work, if he has the health and strength to stay in bed?
