Walsall Football Club have today sealed another extension on the loan agreement of Leicester City midfielder, Michael Cain.
20-year-old, Luton-born Cain is a product of the Luton Town Academy, and joined Leicester in the summer of 2011, in a deal reported to be worth more than £100,000.
After a couple of season's with the Foxes youth sides Michael joined Sky Bet League 2 outfit Mansfield Town on loan in February 2014, and went on to make just a handful of first team appearances for the Stags before returning to the King Power Stadium.

Michael joined Walsall in early October, and after spending a period of time training with the squad, he agreed to a one month loan deal on 20th October.
He went on to put in several solid performances, which convinced Saddlers' boss Dean Smith to extend the deal for another thirty-days November.
Michael has continued to impress whilst at the club, and has done more than enough to force Smith to seek a further extension to his loan period.
Last week Smith spoke to the Express & Star, and confirmed his desire to keep Michael at the club, he said; "I’m really pleased with how he’s progressing and there will be a conversation with Leicester soon to see whether we can extend his loan.
“We have extended it once and it’s up on December 21, so there will be a conversation with Leicester to see if we can extend it until January."
It is also understood that Dean already wants to extend Cain's loan beyond January, he told the Express & Star; “Once we get to January, if we can keep him until then, the conversation will change but it will all depend on what Leicester want to do.”
