Snodgrass refusing to be drawn on future with Leeds

Snodgrass is seen as a cornerstone of manager Neil Warnock’s new team, and a new deal would make him the highest-paid player at the club.

The 24-year-old Scot still has a year to run on his current deal, but he says he will take his time before committing beyond that.

He said: “I’ve got another year left, that’s what people are forgetting and they think I’m going to leave because my contract is up. But that’s not the case.

“I can’t sit here and say I’m doing this decision for myself. It’s never really been about me; I’ve just come down here and signed a contract and played for Leeds United and got on with it.

“But now I need to sit down with my family - the people who matter most - and try and see where the next step is.

“I’ve a year left and if nothing comes about, I’ll be here at Leeds United and hopefully be part of what will be a successful promotion season.

“It’s the end of the season and we’ll take a break a little bit. The club will be trying to get their signings in as well and I know Neil Warnock has got his ball rolling already and he’s trying to sign a few and you’ll see them come up over the next few weeks.”

Meanwhile, Warnock has said he is unlikely to make Paul Robinson’s move to Leeds permanent.
