BATTH TIME SET TO RUN AND RUN

- By Andrew Lawton

WOLVES skipper Danny Batth insists he is ready to lead Wolves back to the Premier League after signing a new four-year contract at the club.

The new deal will keep the centre back tied to Molineux until 2020 and the centre-back – who turned 26 earlier this week – is confident the best is still to come.

“I am delighted to commit my future to the club and a club that I have been on a great journey with so far,” he said.

“I also hope during my continued associatio­n with the club that we will obviously progress and we will reach the Premier League.

“I am obviously happy with my performanc­es so far but I like to feel that I can still get better. It is hard to sum up my feelings about Wolves. It is in my blood, it is my daily routine, it is everything that I know.

“Wolves are special to me and something I take very seriously. I always want to look at the long term and try to help us move in the right direction.

“Hopefully now I have committed my future to the club and hopefully we can all get together – fans, management and board – and push in the right direction.”
