Nigel Pearson admits discussions over Han-Noah Massengo's new contract continue to rumble on as the midfielder experiences a purple patch after playing his way through a difficult spell prior to Christmas.
Massengo was the subject of transfer speculation early in the January window with claims in Germany that Freiburg were ready to spend a significant fee to sign him, a few weeks after the publication of an interview in France in which it was revealed Premier League Watford made an unsuccessful bid last summer for the 20-year-old.
The Robins have offered fresh terms to Massengo, whose present deal expires in 2023, but there is a sense of anxiety within the fanbase that as his stock continues to rise and the clock ticks towards the summer, if he doesn't extend his contract, a summer sale looks inevitable.
