KEMAR Roofe has agreed to extend his loan at Oxford United until the end of the season.

The forward joined from West Bromwich Albion on an initial 28-day arrangement last month, which is due to expire next week.

Roofe, 22, has made five appearances for United and made his first start in last weekend’s 1-0 win at Bury.

He said: “It’s good to have it sorted out nice and early.

“I have really enjoyed my time here. I have been made to feel very welcome, there is a positive outlook throughout the club and I am enjoying my football.”
