The 22-year-old came to Mourneview Park on loan in January 2012 and almost single-handedly ensured their top flight survival. He netted 13 goals in 16 games and picked up the club’s Player of the Season and Top Goalscorer awards.
He had an impressive season at Windsor Park last term but has started only four league games for Linfield this season.
