Shane Long unsure of West Bromwich Albion future

West Bromwich Albion striker Shane Long admits that he could leave the club if he is not offered a contract extension.

West Bromwich Albion striker Shane Long has admitted that he could be forced to leave the club if he is not offered a new contract.

Talks between the 26-year-old and the Baggies over a fresh deal are understood to have broken down in recent weeks.

Despite insisting that he is happy at The Hawthorns, Long claims that he may soon have to look elsewhere for first-team football.

"I have always been wanted there. The gaffer said he wants me, I am a big part of his plans and I enjoy playing for him as well," he is quoted as saying by Sky Sports News.

"I am just concentrating on my football at West Brom and if a new contract doesn't get sorted out, then I'll have to look at pastures new. But at the moment, I am letting that take care of itself."

It was reported on Friday that Hull City were preparing a new bid for Long after failing to land the forward over the summer.
