Popular Post marcx666 Posted September 17, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted September 17, 2019 Owls midfielder Alex Hunt has signed a new contract with the club, penning a deal until 2021. The Under-23s captain said he was delighted after extending his stay with Wednesday having joined the club aged seven. Hunt told swfc.co.uk: “I’m delighted, it’s my boyhood club. “My dad was buzzing, it was his birthday when I got offered the new contract! It’s a massive thing for me, my younger brother and my family who are all Wednesdayites. “To sign my first professional contract was good but to get a new contract this early is a confidence boost for me to kick on. “I came here at seven and signed my first professional deal when I was 17, it’s about getting near that first team now or going out on loan to develop my career.” Hunt made his Wednesday debut against Sunderland in the Carabao Cup last season and says he is determined to get back in first team contention. The 19-year-old added: “I think I’ve progressed well since my first team debut which was a big moment for me. “There’s a lot of distractions in football but you have to really get your head down and focus if you want to be in this game. “I want to get around the first team. We’ve got a new manager which is a good chance to impress, I’ve not trained with him yet, but I really look forward to it if I do.” 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Grez Bez Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 I've seen him a few times and he's a great player. Looks about 12 but isn't as lightweight as he looks. A lower league loan would do him the world of good. Reminds me of Bannan on the ball Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as I said before, we must do all we can to get him out on loan as soon as possible as I can't see him progress much playing U-23 football at this stage of his career.
