"There is a clause in his deal that will see it extended to the end of the 2025-26 season, which will be activated if he reaches a certain number of appearances — a mark he is very close to already."

Would assume he is after a better deal regardless and of course I hope we will give it him. He is 28 now so this is his big opportunity for a payday.

Yeah the article says we're looking to get him on a longer deal too but it least there's some security if negotiations drag on.

He absolutely deserves to be on a big contract. He's in the top 2 or 3 best right backs in the prem now. And can also play at LB. Top quality the lad is. He can score, his one on one defending is excellent, he's got pace and gets forward with ease.

I think he's been in the top 1 this season. Only really Trent who you'd put up with him and he recently got dropped!

Plus he's a very important of the squad in terms on bonding. He's clearly well liked, even if his socials certainly look like hes the annoying little brother of the squad.

It'd be a much quieter dressing room without him

Nothing on the official site yet but got fingers crossed.

Wood, Aina, MGW and CHO please. If we manage to get all those tied up on new deals we'll be in a good place.

I fear CHO will be the hardest to convince personally

How about Williams as well as he is out of contract next season.
