Speaking to the Official Club Website, Town boss Roy Keane confirmed: "I have spoken to Brucie [Steve Bruce] and hopefully Jack will be here until the end of the season.
"Brucie knows he's playing games here and getting experience and that's what you want when you send players out on loan.
"Jack's done well for us and he has a chance of being a top player. He's the right sort of character. There are a lot of good players out there but it's character that makes you into a top player."
