DONE DEAL: Burton boss Clough welcomes Man City prospect Davenport

Burton Albion have snapped up Manchester City youngster Jacob Davenport.

Burton have signed 19-year-old midfielder Davenport on loan from City until the end of the season.

Burton boss Nigel Clough said: “He's highly-rated by Pep Guardiola and you won't get a better endorsement than that.

"All we have heard about him is that if he doesn't make it, it won't be from the lack of trying to do everything right. He gives himself the best possible opportunity to be a professional footballer."
