Rovers extend loan of striker Marvin Sordell
Tranmere Rovers have today extended the loan stay of striker Marvin Sordell by a further month, following a successful four weeks at Prenton Park.
The 19-year old signed for Les Parry's side a month ago from Championship side Watford on an inital one month stay, with Tranmere having the option to extend Sordell's stay at Prenton Park for a further two months.
Since joining Tranmere, Sordell has played five times and scored once, a crucial strike in a 2-1 win over Leyton Orient, a result that saw Rovers move out of the bottom four for the first time since August.
The striker, who has scored once in four appearances for Watford, initially signed for Rovers as cover for Bas Savage, but over the past four weeks he has made the position his own, replacing the out of sorts Terry Gornell in the starting line up.
Tranmere manager Les Parry told the club's official site
“Marvin has done well for us so far and I’m pleased to keep him here for another month. “He has improved game by game and hopefully his goal against Leyton Orient will be the first of many he will score for us.“I’d like to thank Watford manager Malky Mackay for allowing Marvin to stay with us.”
