Oluwasemilogo Ajayi revealed talks with West Brom over a contract extension was on for a long time, perhaps a necessary situation as the Nigerian was in his final year and needed assurances in the future.
Ajayi penned a two year extension, Monday, and feels certain now that he will be an important player even if the Baggies managed to gain promotion to the Premier League in 2024.

Speaking about the new deal Ajayi said, “I’m really, really pleased to secure my future here at this football club.
