Port Vale's Ryan Lloyd extends Chester loan for further month

Ryan Lloyd made five appearances for Port Vale this season before joining Chester

Chester have extended young Port Vale midfielder Ryan Lloyd's loan for a further month until 31 January.

Lloyd, 21, has made three National League appearances since initially joining City in November, as well as playing in their 2-0 FA Trophy first round win at Telford.

His first two appearances ended in defeats at Gateshead and Cheltenham.

But Saturday's 4-1 home win against Torquay United has lifted Steve Burr's men to 14th in the table.

The left-side midfield man's deal was due to run out at the end of this month but the two clubs have now come to another agreement.
