Asmita Ale has made five league appearances for Tottenham this season

Leicester City have signed defender Asmita Ale on loan from Tottenham Hotspur until the end of the season.

The full-back, 22, has represented England at various youth levels and was part of the Young Lionesses squad in September for the inaugural European Under-23 League.

Leicester, who are 10th in the Women's Super League, host Everton in the Women's League Cup on Wednesday.

"At my age, it's important to have game time to develop," Ale told LCFC.com.

"It will be good for me joining Leicester and hopefully I can help the team put some more points on the board."
