Lukas Rupp reveals Norwich contract talks

Lukas Rupp has revealed he is speaking with Norwich City about a contract extension.

The 31-year-old's current deal expires at the end of this season.

"My agent has spoken to Stuart (Webber, Norwich sporting director) but it is still too early for both sides," Rupp told The Athletic. "The club doesn't know whether it is Premier League or the Championship next season, and for me it is the same.

"I want to get fit. I want to be on the pitch and I want to help the team. Then in the end, it will come by itself. I'm open to everything and we will see what the future reveals.

"When I was younger, I would have read rumours or seen someone arrive in my position and think, 'What about me?' But now I know it is what it is. All I can do is deliver on the pitch and if I have a boss that likes me, he gives me a new contract or he doesn't.

"If one door closes, another opens."
