PARRETT THE PILGRIM
Posted on: Thu 12 Aug 2010
ARGYLE have signed Tottenham attacking midfielder Dean Parrett on loan until the end of the season.
London born Parrett, 18, played four times for Aldershot last term before returning to White Hart Lane to star in the U18s.
Argyle manager Peter Reid was delighted to get his midfield man.
He said: "Harry Redknapp and Tim Sherwood have helped me out - Dean's a young attacking midfield player who has played for England so it's a good prospect for us.
"I just feel we need somebody to open things up in the middle of the park and I'm hoping Dean will be the man and I'm sure he will be.

"I'm excited to be working with the boy and hopefully he can get on the pitch and do the job for us."
Dean also has European experience, having played 89 minutes of Spurs' UEFA Cup first leg tie with Shakhtar Donetsk last term.
An England youth international, Parrett has experience at both U17 and U19 level and featured for the Three Lions in the European U19 Championship Elite Qualifying in 2009.
Parrett will be a familiar name to some of the younger members of the Argyle squad having captained the Young Spur's youth team to a 3-0 victory over Argyle in the FA Youth Cup fifth round in 2009.

The midfielder will also know team-mate David Button, a factor that Reid believes will be important in bedding the youngster down.
He said: "I spoke to the boy [Parrett] on the telephone and he's says he's a big mate of Butts so that just mean when he comes he knows somebody so he'll fit into the surroundings even better."
Because Parrett is still only 18 years of age, Tottenham have the right to recall him after 28 days if they see fit.
