Shrewsbury Town's Micky Mellon to play waiting game in bid to secure Connor Goldson
Defender Connor Goldson has impressed on his return to Shrewsbury Town for pre-season training.
But manager Micky Mellon admits he may have to play a waiting game if he is to re-sign the popular Wolverhampton-born stopper to new deal. Goldson was offered a new contract at the end of last season which remains unsigned while he weighs up his options. But he has thrown himself into training at the Greenhous Meadow in the last two days and Mellon is still hopeful of agreeing a new deal to keep him at the club.
He said: "Connor did well and fair play to the boy, he's obviously got a lot going on at the minute and he has got decisions that he wants to make.
"We have given him the time that he needs to do that but we are having an open conversation with him and we are hoping we can resolve the situation quickly.
"It's a difficult one because Connor has every right to go and speak to other clubs.
"I can see the qualities that he has and we will just have to be as patient."
Meanwhile, ex-Town goalkeeper Chris Weale has rejoined former club Yeovil , and midfielder Luke Summerfield has joined York City. Both have been signed to two-year deals after they were released by Town.
