Veteran defender Peter Clarke has extended his loan deal at Latics until the end of the season.

The 40-year-old, who rejoined the club on loan from Walsall in November, will now remain at Boundary Park until the end of the current National League campaign.

Clarke made his 900th career appearance against Torquay earlier this month, with over 100 of them coming in a Latics shirt.

He has played in every minute of every game so far since his return, and featured on the scoresheet at Solihull Moors after turning in a corner from John Rooney.
