-
City and Liverpool have agreed to extend the window in which the Premier League champions can recall Lewis Koumas.Liverpool originally had to inform Blues whether they planned to recall Koumas by January 15 but owing to the winger's recent run in the team, coupled with Demarai Gray's injury, an agreement has been struck to extend the window.
Koumas is now likely to get at least the next two Championship matches against Swansea City and Sheffield Wednesday, possibly the Stoke City game on January 24 too, before a definitive decision is made.
