Leeds United have extended the loan deal of Liverpool goalkeeper David Martin until the end of January.
Martin joined the League One leaders at the end of November and was due to return to Anfield after Monday's game against Stockport County.
However, Whites boss Simon Grayson is keen to ensure he has sufficient cover after Shane Higgs encountered a setback in his recovery from injury.
The deal means Martin will spend a second month at Elland Road and he is also eligible to play in the FA Cup, with Leeds travelling to Manchester United in the third round.
To date, Martin has made a solitary senior appearance for Leeds in the Johnstone's Paint Trophy against Accrington Stanley when he kept a clean sheet in a 2-0 win.
