Sunderland midfielder Billy Knott has expressed his desire to extend his loan spell with AFC Wimbledon.

The 19-year-old, whose current stint at Kingsmeadow ends on March 10, scored his second Dons goal in Saturday's 3-3 draw against Crewe. "It is great to be involved with such a great group of lads," he told the Dons' website. "We are trying to climb the table together and everyone is working hard for each other. I am really enjoying it and all the coaching staff are helping me so it has been great for me here. "I want to play games before I go back to Sunderland. If I am doing well and the team are doing well and Sunderland are okay with it, then I don't see any reason why I cannot stay longer."
