Albion full-back Darnell Furlong has committed his future to the club by signing a contract extension which runs until the summer of 2027.

The deal will automatically extend for a further 12 months, until 2028, should Furlong trigger an appearance-related clause in the contract. 

The 28-year-old, who arrived at The Hawthorns in July 2019, has to date made 210 appearances for the Baggies, scoring 10 goals.

Furlong has featured in every Sky Bet Championship fixture – a run of 88 games – since Carlos Corberán was appointed Head Coach in October 2022.

Darnell said: “I'm delighted to be extending my stay at the Albion. I've been here for a while now and it's a place where I feel I can continue to thrive and grow as a player.

“I believe the club is moving forward and it's an exciting time to be here, with a talented squad and a manager we all trust and admire.

“I've been happy with my performances recently but I'm still so determined to get better and better and I'm confident I can do that here.”

"This signing continues the squad planning strategy we put in motion last spring. Darnell is a player we value and everyone across the organisation has been keen to ensure he continues here.

“Darnell has been a consistent, high performer under Carlos and his attributes complement the playing style we continue to develop.”
