West Bromwich Albion star Conor Townsend says he never thought about leaving the club.

The left-back signed a new three year contract with the Hawthorns team last month.

Townsend is enjoying a good run of form and is now first choice left back under Sam Allardyce, after previously losing his spot to Kieran Gibbs due to an injury absence.

"We spoke about the contract just before I got injured," Townsend said, per Express and Star.

"So with the injury and the new manager coming in, there were obviously worries about whether the contract was going to be there still.

"You wonder 'does the gaffer want me?

"Everyday things like that were going through my mind.

"Then obviously I got back fit and managed to get the deal sorted and over the line.

"I was delighted because I have really enjoyed my time here. I never had any interest in moving because I like it here.

"There is a great family feel around the club.

"The fans have been great since I've joined and I've mentioned before the Albion Foundation – it's beyond anything I've seen at any other club.

"I think the work they are doing with the community is fantastic."
