Leeds have agreed to let Simon Johnson remain at their Yorkshire-neighbours, Doncaster Rovers, for another month.

Johnson has bagged himself 2 goals in 7 appearances at Belle Vue and although he has not scored many, he has impressed.

 

The 21-year-old’s first loan deal ended on Monday but Dave Penney was keen to retain his services.

 

Johnson has been partnering Neil Roberts upfront and after has had loan spells with Hull Blackpool and Sunderland previously.

 

The youngster expressed a wish not to play reserve football at Leeds this season and wanted first-team action.
