Crawley have signed Barnsley left-back George Smith on loan.
The 19-year-old has joined the Sky Bet League 2 club for 28 days and will be in the squad for Saturday's home clash with Cambridge.
Smith has made 42 first-team appearances for the Tykes since signing professional terms in the summer of 2014.
Town boss Mark Yates told the club's official website: "It has been a very busy few days trying to add to the squad and we're delighted to have got George.
"He's highly regarded by [Barnsley manager] Lee Johnson and, having spoken to him, I know he's looking forward to coming down here and getting some games under his belt.
"Hopefully it's an arrangement that can benefit both parties and I'd like to thank Lee at Barnsley for letting George come to us."
