Downing's Loan Deal to be Extended?

The two young West Bromwich loanees, Paul Downing and Lateef Elford-Alliyu, who joined Hereford United in January on one month loan deals are set to return to the Hawthorns shortly.

The deal was made public on Monday January 25th but it is not known when the FA was informed, which could mean that they may be able to stay a few days longer before their month is up.

Elford-Alliyu played for the Bulls at Port Vale on January 30th. However Downing didn't feature until the following game which was against Lincoln on February 2nd.

At present it looks as though both will be available for Tuesday's game against Northampton and probably next Saturday's game at Notts County.

Sources close to the club has suggested that John Trewick will ask West Bromwich if the loan of Downing can be extended until the end of the season. The youngster has partnered Darren Jones in the heart of the Hereford United defence.
