Atlanta United today announced it has extended the loan of defender Anton Walkes until the end of the season. Currently on loan from Tottenham Hotspur FC, Walkes has made eight league appearances, started five matches and scored one goal.

Walkes was inserted into the starting lineup in MLS action on June 24 against Colorado and has started every match since. Atlanta has gone unbeaten in that stretch (4-0-1) and has allowed just three goals to go along with three clean sheets. In all competitions, Walkes has made 10 appearances and seven starts.
