Sean Maguire: West Ham striker stays at Accrington on loan

Maguire joined West Ham from Waterford United in 2013

Accrington have extended the loan spell of striker Sean Maguire from West Ham until 18 January.

The 20-year-old Irishman has scored four goals in 13 games since signing for the League Two club in September.

Maguire will be able to play against York on Boxing Day, subject to ratification from the Football League.

"He's a very good player and one who will continue to get better," Accrington manager John Coleman told the club website.

"You possibly miss him when he doesn't play because of how well he gets hold of the ball and how he brings others into play.

"He's quite an unselfish player. I think his team-mates would miss him more than other people if he wasn't here."
