Comments Off on Crewe Alexandra sweating over Clayton extension

League One club Crewe Alexandra is still waiting over the future of young striker Max Clayton.

The England Under-21 striker has the offer of a new three year contract from the club but he is yet to make up his mind regarding an extension. The contract offer has been on the table from the for the last eighteen months but the player has stalled on signing a new deal as he weighs up his options.

Steve Davis, the manager of the club has stated that although the club hasn’t given the player any timeline for signing the contract, he is hopeful that the player remains with the club for the long terms and if he does so, it will be good for both the player and the club. He also added that if he commits his future to the club, he will be a huge part of the team.

Davis went on to add that Crewe Alexandra has always maintained that they would want the player to develop more and keep him for the next three years and that is what has been offered in his new contract offer.

Clayton has scored eleven goals for the club since breaking into the first team during the 2012/13 season and is seen as another bright talent to come out of the potent production line of the club. However, his progress has been derailed somewhat after he suffered an ankle injury last year which ruled him out for five months.

Still only 19, Crewe Alexandra can hope to land a decent transfer fee if the player does leave as he is under 24 years old, but ideally, the club would want to hold on to the player as they make another push for promotion to the Championship next season and the Premier League in the future.

Crewe Alexandra managed a confidence boosting 3-1 win over Gillingham last weekend, but they were unable to keep the positive run going after suffering a defeat by the same score at the hands of Notts County. After the match, manager Steve Davis was disappointed with the outcome, which pushed the team closer to relegation. The winner against Gillingham had given Crewe Alexandra a ray of hope that they could get out of the relegation zone, but this latest defeat has put them firmly back in the mix again. Davies said after the match that his team certainly did not deserve going 3-0 down in the match.

Notts County did not have to do much in order to get the goals, as they ripped the opposition about with two brilliant counter-attacks. The other goal came from a set piece. Davies was especially unhappy at the manner of the goals conceded. This defeat has also raised questions about the possibility of getting 3 points from next week’s match against Coventry City, who have little to play for in the remainder of the campaign. However, Steven Pressley has been looking to strengthen the team and Coventry could have a couple of important names by the time this match kicks off.

“We were stunned by the result. It didn’t deserve to be 3-0 in fairness, but the important thing is tonight was always going to be the first goal. Depending on who got that it would decide how the game was going to be set up through the rest of it. The manner we conceded all of the goals was disappointing – two counter attacks and a set play. We tried to play football and we haven`t had enough in the final third,” said Crewe Alexandra’s Davies. For Notts County, this was the second consecutive win.
