West Brom striker Long calm over marathon contract talks

Shane Long insists he's not been unsettled by marathon contract talks with West Bromwich Albion.

The 26-year-old's current deal has a year to run plus an option for a further season.

"We're still in talks," Long told the Express & Star. "I still have a year and an option left so I'm concentrating on playing for West Brom this season and hopefully having another really good season in the Premier League and we will see where the contract talks go in the future. I'm still a West Brom player and that's all I'm looking at now.

"It's up to the club and agents to sort out other things and I won't let it faze me.

"I just keep my eye on the football and let other things take care of themselves."
