Southend United boss Phil Brown has confirmed Conor Clifford has extended his loan stay at Barnet until the end of the season.

The 23-year-old's initial loan agreement came to an end after Saturday's 3-1 reverse at the hands of Forest Green Rovers.

Barnet head coach Martin Allen said afterwards he wanted to extend the former Chelsea youngster's stay and Shrimpers boss Brown has now told the Southend Echo the deal has been completed.

Clifford has made five appearances for the Bees, scoring once.
