Scunthorpe United can confirm that Midfielder Kian Scales has extended his loan with Enterprise National League North side Radcliffe FC until the end of the season.
Joining the Iron in the summer of 2023, following his release from boyhood club Bradford City, Scales would arrive ahead of the Iron's first National League North campaign, immediately taking the division by storm and impressing supporters with his tireless performances and incredible work rate. The midfielder would go on to repeat that feat in United's 2024-25 promotion-winning campaign by covering more ground than any other Iron player and featuring 47 times across the course of the season.
So far this campaign, Scales has featured 19 times for the Iron in the Enterprise National League, with a further six appearances in other competitions. Despite an extended period in the starting XI during the suspension of Joe Starbuck earlier in the season, Scales has struggled to break into the Scunthorpe team at times, hence heading out to join the Boro on an initial 28-day loan last month.
Since arriving at the Neuven Stadium, Scales has become an instant fan favourite, as expected with his endless energy in the middle of the park, with a man-of-the-match performance against Spennymoor Town that helped him become one of the first names on the team sheet in recent weeks.
All the best, Kian!
The nature of this loan extension holds a 24-hour recall in favour of the Iron.
