Norwich City have extended the loan of Reading striker Leroy Lita by another month.

Lita has proven to be a success at Carrow Road since joining Norwich from Championship rivals Reading at the start of October.

The former England Under 21 international has scored four goals in six appearances, including a hat-trick in a 5-2 win over leaders Wolves.

He had admitted he would be happy to extend his stint and Reading boss Steve Coppell has now agreed to let Lita stay with the Canaries.

Reading do have a 24-hour recall option, with the last game of Lita's current spell due to be the December 7th derby against Ipswich Town.
