Bennett rewarded with new deal

Published on: 17 December 2018

Wolves have handed their consistent defender Ryan Bennett a new contract that will keep him at Molineux until at least 2021.

The 28-year-old, who moved to Wolves from Norwich City 18 months ago, has made the transition from the Championship to the top-flight well and has played a key role in the team's fine start to the campaign.

Bennett played 33 games last term as Wolves finished top of the Championship table and has only missed one match this season.

Wolves are seventh after beating Bournemouth 2-0 on Saturday, their third Premier League victory in a row.

Sporting director Kevin Thelwell said of Bennett, who made his 50th appearance for Nuno Espirito Santo's side against the Cherries at the weekend, said: "Ryan has been a great addition to the squad since he arrived at Wolves last summer and we are delighted to offer him this new deal.

"He has had a huge impact on the club and we are thrilled that he has been able to take to replicate his performances in the Championship last season into the Premier League.

"He is an incredibly consistent performer and you can always guarantee him to give 100 per cent in everything he does.

"Ryan's commitment to the club, together with his professional attitude both on and off the pitch has made him a very popular member of the Wolves family."

Wolves are 9/1 to finish in the top six this season while they are 5/1 to beat Liverpool in their next match on Friday.
