Craddock highlights his hopes to stay on at Molineux
Wolves defender Jody Craddock is hoping for a new deal despite injury restricting him to just 13 appearances this term.
The 33-year-old's current contract is set to expire in the summer and after nearly six years at Molineux he fears his time at the club could be coming to an end.
The former Sunderland man has watched his team-mates climb to the top of the Championship table in his absence with promotion to the Premier League now within touching distance.
Wolves are currently five points ahead of second place Birmingham and a further four points clear of Reading in third with just six games of the season remaining.
"I want to stay at Wolves, whether I am given that chance is out of my hands at the moment," he told
skysports.com.
"I had talks with my wife about the Australian move, when the Perth Glory thing came up, but it's just not for me really and I am just focused on staying at Wolves."
Work to be done
Despite being tantalisingly close to reaching the top tier, Craddock knows that promotion is not sealed just yet.
"We've got six difficult games to go and we need to remain focused on the task at hand," he added.
"If we start thinking that we are already there then we are not going to concentrate as much we should do."
With West Brom, Stoke and Hull City all battling to avoid an immediate return to the Championship this season, Craddock is aware of the challenge that awaits Wolves should they gain promotion to the top tier.
"The Premier League is a massive jump from the Championship and we will need to strengthen the squad during the summer," he highlighted.
"But the group of young players we have here are fantastic and are good enough for the Premier League I feel."
