IRELAND STRIKER SHANE Long has admitted that his future at West Brom remains uncertain.
The 26-year-old striker, who joined the Baggies from Reading in 2011, narrowly missed out on a move to Hull City on deadline day after the clubs had agreed a fee and is out-of-contract in nine months.
And while the Tipperary native claims he is happy at the club, he added that he could be open to a move as discussions over a new deal are “up in the air”.
“I don’t want to go anywhere but time is running out on my contract and, if an opportunity comes along that is right for me and my family, I will have to take a look at it,” Long told Express and Star.
It’s still all up in the air. Nothing is concrete at the moment. There was one offer in March or April and ever since then it’s gone quiet, so I am biding my time and seeing what they come back with.”
For the time being, Long is keen to get back into the team after losing his place and score his first goal of the season.
“I will let that take care of itself and try to get minutes on the pitch, score goals and get my way back into the starting XI.”
Where ????
Rochdale ?
He’d beat Utd routinely from there as well baby!
Arsenal, good manager..
Ireland anyone ha ha …hello red thumbs..
I don’t get the criticism of the man.
Chelsea were already off the pace in the league and basically out of the champions league when he took over.
He has them in the latter stages of two competitions and could well win both and yet all he gets is knocked.
Any club in England would be lucky to have him and hicks and Gillette left liverpool in an awful state, not rafa
Of course he wants to manage a top club. He doesn’t know how to manage without throwing money at new, usually terrible, signings. Mancini and Mourinho used to have Serie A won by November then they give Benitez a job and he makes a fool of himself every week by telling the press he needs 2 years to build etc. He did well with Valencia although they had good players back then and fair enough he won the CL but he left Liverpool in a terrible state.
Everton maybe, if moye’s leaves.
Why would a big club go for such a small manager?
