Whitby Town have officially extended the loan of nineteen-year-old midfielder Lucas Barnes from Harrogate Town into the new year.
Whitby Town have confirmed that midfielder Lucas Barnes will remain with the club into the new year after extending his loan spell from National League side Harrogate Town.
The 19-year-old joined the Blues in October and has made a positive impression since arriving at the Towbar Express Stadium, making six appearances for the Pitching In Northern Premier League side.
Primarily a defensive midfielder, Barnes brings energy and versatility to the Whitby squad and will provide further options for the management team as the club look to build on their performances throughout the remainder of the season.
Barnes came through Harrogate Town's academy and signed a new contract with the North Yorkshire club in June 2026, reflecting their belief in his potential.
The extended loan will give the youngster further opportunities to gain valuable senior experience while continuing his development with Whitby.
The Seasiders will be pleased to retain his services as they look ahead to the busy winter programme.
Whitby Town have thanked Harrogate Town for their cooperation in agreeing the extension.
