GRIMSBY Town winger Louie Soares has returned to Ebbsfleet United for a further loan spell.
The 27-year-old has this week completed an initial one-month loan with the Stonebridge Road club.
Joint boss Rob Scott has said Soares will extend his stay with the Kent outfit, although Town do have the option to recall the former Reading man with 24 hours notice.
Scott said: "We spoke to Louie about extending his loan and explained that it would be foolhardy to come back at the minute and not get in the team.
"From the reports that we've got, he's been doing well at Ebbsfleet and they've mooted that they wanted to keep him for longer. So we've spoken to them and arranged it for him to stay with them. We do have a 24-hour recall on him which works in everyone's favour."
Meanwhile, Scott added that a proposed loan deal for Simon Ford – which broke down after the recent injury to Shaun Pearson – could be revived following the former Boston man's return to full fitness.
He said: "There's obviously a lot of things that can change in football and one of those things is whether the clubs that were interested are still interested now.
"We've got to see if Shaun's 100 per cent fit to carry on, we don't want to let someone go out on loan and him not to be totally right but that's still a possibility."
