However, his contract is set to expire at the end of the forthcoming season, and should he choose not to extend his deal, Poyet has admitted that he will look to sell the former Ipswich Town man rather than see him leave on a free transfer next summer. He said: “For me, Connor’s situation is clear, he needs to sign a new contract or we let him go – we sell him.
“There is nothing in between. He is an asset to the football club and we paid a lot of money for him.
