"It was always taken that we’re taking him to the end of the season but that we can have a break in an emergency loan,” he said.

We understand that the breaks have allowed the 93-day loan to stretch to allow the 26-year-old to play for the Blues in the play-off semi-finals if they make them but not the final on Saturday 28th May.
