West Bromwich Albion midfielder Craig Gardner is confident he can help his side finish in the top 10 this season after signing a new two-year contract with the club.
Gardner joined the Baggies in 2014 after leaving Sunderland on a free transfer after making 81 appearances for the Black Cats.
The former Aston Villa and Birmingham City star has made 81 appearances since he moved to the Hawthorns and the club have moved quickly to tie him down.
He had entered the final 12 months of his contract but the Midlands club have extended his deal until the summer of 2018, with the option of a further 12 months.
Speaking about his new deal, Gardner admits he is delighted to extend his stay as he tries to help the club finish in the top half of the Premier League.
He told the club’s official website: “It’s brilliant for me to extend my contract, especially at a time when the club are bringing in some top players.
“This is a great family club and the lads are brilliant to play with. “I just want to keep playing Premier League football alongside some top players that can hopefully help us climb into the top 10.”
Tony Pulis’ side currently sit ninth in the league table after picking up nine points from their first seven matches.
The Baggies are currently unbeaten in their last three matches and they will take on Tottenham at home on Saturday.
West Brom are 5.00 grab all three points, while the draw is priced at 3.80, with Spurs available at odds of 1.73.
