Everton striker James Vaughan will remain on loan with Leicester City until the end of the season.

The 21-year old originally joined the Foxes on a one-month deal but manager Nigel Pearson has decided to take him for the rest of the term as his club chases a spot in the Championship play-offs.

Vaughan has made five substitute appearances for Leicester but missed two weeks because of a hamstring injury.

He is now back in action and ready to help the Foxes push for a return to the top flight.
