Southend United extend Jack Sampson loan deal

Southend United have extended the loan of Bolton striker Jack Sampson for a further month until 10 March.

The 18-year-old has made one start and two substitute appearances for the League Two side since arriving from the Reebok Stadium in January .

Sampson was set to return to his parent club this week but is now eligible for Monday's trip to Gillingham.

He came off the bench with 19 minutes remaining of Friday's 2-0 home defeat by Rotherham.
