Niko Hamalainen: Dagenham & Redbridge keep QPR youngster

Niko Hamalainen (l) made his senior debut against Charlton

Dagenham & Redbridge have extended QPR youngster Niko Hamalainen's loan spell by a month.

The 18-year-old left-back joined the Daggers in August and is yet to make his league debut.

He did, however, feature in their recent League Cup first-round defeat by Charlton Athletic.

Hamalainen, a Finland Under-18 international who signed for QPR a year ago, will now stay with the League Two club until 10 October.
