Edit. Yes. 3 year contract when we signed him on the Summer
we took up a 12 month option a couple weeks ago
Just read that thanks. Well that’s good news. Although if we can’t tie him down to a new contract, best sell in the Summer than lose him for nothing 12 months later.
I don’t u sera tans why Pereira hasn’t accepted the improved contract as apparently we don’t have any contracts with release clauses.
He has 4 years to run on his present one... we don’t really gain much from upping his wages other than a potentially happier player - and if he wants to go, he’ll go regardless of contract - but given he’s not one of our top earners and hasn’t got a release clause, I’d be relatively content if he didn’t sign improved terms which would almost certainly expose us to a higher wage long term and probably a relegation/release fee clause!
The only real trade off would be an improved contract where he agrees to give us 12 months next season in exchange for a non promotion fee.
