  WHAT HAPPENED?

  Fulham's captain has been targeted by Wrexham and been offered a lucrative contract following the club's promotion to the Championship. Cairney's current deal at Fulham expires this summer but he has now been handed a new deal. However, Cairney is yet to respond to the contract offer and is still considering a potential move to Wrexham, according to the Evening Standard.

  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  Playing time is thought to be a major consideration for Cairney as he mulls over his future. The 34-year-old only made three Premier League starts last season for Fulham and game time is expected to be limited again if he does continue. However, a move to Wrexham would likely see Cairney go straight into the first team and potentially become a key figure for Phil Parkinson's side.

• WHAT CAIRNEY SAID

  Cairney spoke about his future at the very end of last season. He told the club's media: "We’ll see what happens. We are still in talks, so it’s a weird feeling right now. I don’t know which way to go about it, obviously I want to thank a few people, but at the same time, we’re still in talks.”

  WHAT NEXT FOR CAIRNEY

  Cairney must now decide whether to continue with the Premier League club or look for a new challenge. He is one of several players being targeted by Wrexham as the Welsh side prepare for life in the Championship.
