Northampton Town captain Jon Guthrie has signed a new three year contract, committing him to the club until the summer of 2025.
30 year old Guthrie, who was named in the 2021/22 EFL Sky Bet League 2 Team of the Season, has been impressive since arriving at the club just over a year ago, making 53 appearances, scoring eight goals, and manager Jon Brady was delighted to have secured the services of his skipper for an extended period.
"We are delighted that Jon has signed a new contract," he said.
"He is a key figure for us both on the field and in the dressing room and in a young squad with a lot of potential, he is a perfect role model for some of the younger players.
"Jon has been top class for us over the last year or so and we wanted to move now to secure his services with his contract ending next summer.
"I am sure all supporters will agree with me that this is excellent news for the club and a huge boost for us."
Chief Executive James Whiting said the club were keen to tie up Guthrie's services and turned down a number of significant offers for his services this summer.
"Jon has attracted a lot of interest this summer and it is a big statement from the club that we have not only turned down those repeated offers, but have secured Jon on a longer term contract too.
"Those offers were substantial and the club and the owners deserve a lot of credit for turning those down and making sure Jon stayed a Cobbler.
"It is also good news for our medium to long term planning that Jon is staying with us and that is important too."
We would like to say a big thank you to T&K Precision who are Jon's player sponsor this season.
