Max O’Leary admits Bristol City feels like “home” to him after the goalkeeper agreed a new three-and-a-half year contract at Ashton Gate to continue what has been an impressive season for the Robins academy product.
O’Leary was one of seven senior first-team members scheduled to become a free agent this summer, albeit with the club holding a 12-month option on his previous agreement, but having opened talks around December the 26-year-old is under fresh terms until 2026.
The Bath-born goalkeeper, who first joined the club at Under-11 level, made his debut for the Robins in 2016 but has had to bide his time before establishing himself as No1, operating as a deputy to Frank Fielding and Dan Bentley and spending time on loan at Shrewsbury Town, Kidderminster Harriers and Solihull Moors.
