Southampton have signed Tottenham fullback Phil Ifil on a three-month loan.
Ifil made his Spurs debut against Liverpool on the opening day of the 2004-05 season and has gone on to make three more appearances for the first-team.
He also enjoyed two successful loan spells with Millwall, and Saints boss Burley believes Ifil has a lot of potential.
"We have watched him a few times and I am delighted to be able to bring him in," he told the club's official website.
"Phil is a young defender with a lot of potential and he wants first-team football. It is a good chance to bring in a promising Premiership player and assess him."
