Chelsea defender Todd Kane prolongs Blackburn stay
CHELSEA defender Todd Kane has been allowed to extend his loan at Blackburn Rovers until the end of the season.
Kane had been due to go back to Chelsea after the Huddersfield game but Rovers manager Gary Bowyer has been given a boost in the club's battle to avoid relegation from the Championship.
The youngster has caught the eye since his loan move, and has made nine starts.
Bowyer announced the news via Blackburn's official site: "We are delighted, he has been magnificent for us.
"The first time we brought him in you only had to see his debut at Wolves live on Sky, he took to it like he'd been with us all season.
We are delighted, he has been magnificent for us
"The level of his performances for a 19-year-old, in this fight that we are in, I can't praise him enough, he's a top lad.
"He brings a smile to people's faces and he's got a positivity about him that just spreads through the team."
