Sunderland midfielder Arnau Riera has returned to Falkirk for a second season on loan, according to the Spaniard's agent.
The 26-year-old had been expected to return to Spain after failing to impress Blackpool boss Simon Grayson during a Bloomfield Road trial earlier this month.
However, Riera is now expected to spend a second campaign in Scotland, with the player's agent, Craig Honeyman, saying: "Arnau is delighted to be moving back to Falkirk.
"He really enjoyed his spell there last term and was a big crowd favourite, so the move is good news for everyone."
Neither the Bairns nor Sunderland have as yet confirmed the loan arrangement has been finalised.
