Northampton Town (loan)

Cambridge United (loan)
On 5 January 2016, Furlong signed for Cambridge United on a one-month loan deal.[9] On 9 January 2016, Furlong made his Cambridge United debut in a 1–0 away defeat against Crawley Town, playing the full 90 minutes.[10] On 8 February 2016, after impressing within the first month of his loan spell with Cambridge United, Furlong's loan spell at the Abbey Stadium was extended for a further month.[11] On 12 March 2016, Furlong started for Cambridge against Northampton, the team he had been on loan to at the start of the season. The match finished 1–1 with a dramatic late equaliser by Cambridge.[12] On 19 April 2016, Cambridge defeated Morecambe 7–0, with Furlong contributing with an assist. The result matched Cambridge's record of their biggest ever league victory.[13] After numerous loan extensions to Furlong's Cambridge United career, he returned to Queens Park Rangers at the end of the 2015–16 campaign having played for every minute of every league game for Cambridge since his signing.

Return to Queens Park Rangers
After Furlong was recalled from his loan at Swindon, he returned to the starting line up on 12 January 2017 (his first league appearance for the club in almost 2 years) as QPR pulled off an upset against promotion hopefuls Reading, 1–0 away from home, in which Furlong played the full 90 minutes.[18] Under new boss Ian Holloway, Furlong saw a prolonged duration in the side in the form of a right back/right wing back. Shortly after returning from his loan spell, Furlong's sudden involvement with the first team earned him a two-year contract extension until the summer of 2019. On the contract extension, Furlong said "it's a massive boost for me personally and a fresh chance. I've really enjoyed the last few weeks and it's given me a taste of first team football at QPR. I've signed this new deal and I can really focus on kicking on."[19] He scored his first goal for QPR in an EFL Cup tie against Brentford on 22 August 2017.[20]
