Yiadom rejected a new deal from the side after the club has also rejected a second bid from English Premier League side Swansea City.

The young Ghanaian defender is not keen on staying at the club but his manager insists Yiadom will stay.

“I will say one thing, he is very focused and driven and wants to do his best," Heckingbottom said.

 

“He was in this situation at Barnet when he rejected a contract and stayed on the money he was on to earn a move.

“One thing is for sure, we will have a hungry player on our hands who is trying to impress everybody to earn the best possible contract where he can, whether it is here or elsewhere.”

 

Yiadom was a member of the Black Stars of Ghana squad that placed fourth at the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations in Gabon.
