Clint Dempsey
When we loan a player we usually extend their contract by a year to cover it.
Yep, as I said Alfie's camp were smart.
They only accepted an extension of 1 year when the loan happened and the new contract offer came along. If not, he'd be out of contract at the end of this season. Signing up until 2029 or 2030 would have been madness for him based on the lack of opportunities he's been given.
Alfie holds the cards in my opinion.
