AFC Telford keen to extend Ben Futcher loan deal

AFC Telford United are keen to extend defender Ben Futcher's loan from League One side Bury until the end of the season.

The 30 year-old joined the Bucks in January after falling down the pecking order at Gigg Lane.

"We'd like to keep him for longer," Telford boss Andy Sinton told BBC Radio Shropshire.

"As far as I'm concerned, he's been a really good addition to the squad and I'm looking to push something through."

Futcher's loan expires on 18 February, but he will be available to play against Braintree Town at the Bucks Head.

The former Lincoln City centre-half spent three months on loan at Mansfield earlier this season.
