AFC Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe’s interview with Kris Temple (click here to watch) says the players who have a contract expiring 30th June are in discussions to extend them until the close of the prolonged season.
These are the players who as of that date are technically out of contract as it stands.
Simon Francis
Charlie Daniels
Andrew Surman
Jack Simpson
Artur Boruc
Harry Wilson (loan)
Jordan Ibe (will leave)
Ryan Fraser (offered but not signed)
I would offer them all a 1-year extension regardless of league status apart from Simpson and Boruc. Simpson isn’t going to cut it in this league in my opinion but has needed a loan for the last season or two I think. Boruc hasn’t played a game this season, time for Mark Travers to step up to number 2 or sign a deputy for Aaron Ramsdale, again, even if we get relegated Boruc will probably go?
Surman, Daniels, Francis are all good to keep hold of for another season based on experience alone and surprised we haven’t heard of 1-year extensions for them by now.
Obviously Ibe and Fraser will go, and with Harry Wilson who knows.
Your say…
