Danny Karbassiyoon is keen to extend his loan stay at Portman Road if he is wanted by Town boss Joe Royle.

The American U19 international is on a month's loan at Blues from Arsenal and has two weeks to run on the deal.

The Gunners have not given him permission to play in Saturday's game against Bolton because they don't want him Cup-tied but Danny has tasted first-team football at Town, starting in Monday's win at Plymouth.

"I'm really enjoying my time here and if the chance came to stay longer that would be great," Danny tells the Club website.

"The lads have me feel very welcome here, the staff are friendly and it's great to be involved in the first-team and that's what I want to be doing now, pushing for first-team football.

"It's better for me to be playing in front of big crowds and playing in games with points at stake than playing in the reserves for Arsenal."
