Ipswich boss Paul Jewell is eager to see midfielder Lee Martin extend his contract at the club.

Ipswich Town manager Paul Jewell has expressed his desire to see Lee Martin extend his contract at the club.

Martin, 25, is currently in the final year of his contract at Portman Road, and Jewell is keen to tie the midfielder down to a longer stay.

"The owner (Marcus Evans) has spoken with his agent," Jewell told the East Anglian Daily Times. "We are trying to tie Lee down with a new contract in the near future.

"We want to keep Lee Martin but if it is not sorted out in the near future, we cannot afford to let contracts run down."

Martin joined the Tractors from Manchester United in 2009 for an undisclosed fee, and has been enjoying a regular spot in the first team under Jewell.
