Henderson to extend Coventry loan
Coventry City winger Jordan Henderson is hoping to extend his loan stay at the Ricoh until the end of the season.
The original 28-day loan deal for the Sunderland teenager expires on Wednesday (25 February).
"I'm extending my contract here until the end of the season so hopefully we can get that sorted soon," Henderson told BBC Coventry & Warwickshire.
"I'm over the moon playing first-team football for Coventry City who are flying at the minute"
The 18-year-old midfielder has impressed since arriving from the north-east, making four starts and coming on as a substitute in Saturday's 1-0 win over Birmingham.
Henderson, who made his Sunderland debut earlier this season, has only featured twice for the Premier League outfit. But he has slotted in nicely with the Sky Blues, having helped them to successive home local derby victories over Wolverhampton Wanderers and Birmingham City.
"The manager's a different class," he said. "And they have a good chairman.
"The lads are brilliant. There's a great team spirit amongst the group and I'm loving every minute."
Henderson will next get a chance to line-up for the Sky Blues in their FA Cup fifth round replay with Blackburn at the Ricoh on Tuesday night.
