FOOTBALL EXTRA

ALEX JAKUBIAK yesterday joined Falkirk on loan from Watford. The 21-year-old striker (right) said: ‘I’ve been on loan before but this is a chance for me to stamp my mark somewhere.’ The Bairns also confirmed the return of Ryan Blair from Swansea until the end of the season.

EVERTON’S Mo Besic, 25, is being eyed by Torino. He wants more firstteam football and will slip down the pecking order if Sevilla’s Steven Nzonzi signs.

WEST HAM are prepared to listen to offers for Javier Hernandez just six months after paying £16million to land the striker from Bayer Leverkusen.
