AFC Fylde can confirm that Max Bardell has had his loan deal extended from Derby County until the end of the season.

After making his debut in the 3-0 win over Gateshead, the defender has started seven games under Kevin Phillips including last time out against Southend United.

The start on Tuesday night was his first since returning to full fitness and the full back is now ready to kick on with his future cleared for the remainder of the season.

Everyone is delighted to see Max stay at the club and wish him all the best for the remainder of the season.
