West Ham has exercised the one-year option in defender Vladimir Coufal’s contract, securing his services until 2025. Despite this extension, Coufal, the Czech right-back, is reportedly discontented and contemplating his future at the club. Coufal, acquired for £5 million from Slavia Prague, aims for a more favorable and longer-term agreement, considering his significant contributions to the team.

Alongside Tomas Soucek, Coufal joined West Ham and played a crucial role in their success, including a UEFA Conference League triumph. With 108 Premier League starts and 24 appearances in the current season, Coufal has become a linchpin for manager David Moyes. However, discontent with the terms of the contract extension, Coufal and his representatives believe he deserves a more rewarding deal that aligns with other Premier League full-backs.

The 31-year-old defender, contemplating a potential move during the upcoming January transfer window or in the summer, seeks a resolution that reflects his contributions and standing within the team.

Here is the highlight video of Coufal’s goals and skills.
