Danny Welbeck, the Brighton striker, has secured his future at the club with a 12-month contract extension, keeping him at Brighton until 2027. This move comes after a stellar season where Welbeck has become the club's top goalscorer, bagging 11 goals in 30 appearances. His recent performance, including a goal in Sunday's 2-1 win over Nottingham Forest, has not gone unnoticed. But here's where it gets controversial... While his performances have put him in the running for an England recall ahead of this summer's World Cup, boss Thomas Tuchel has yet to confirm his plans. Tuchel's next squad announcement, the last before selecting his World Cup squad, is expected later this month. Brighton manager Fabian Hurzeler has been vocal about his desire to keep Welbeck at the club, and with Welbeck's impressive goal-scoring form, it's easy to see why. Welbeck joined Brighton in October 2020 after leaving Watford and has since scored 48 goals in 191 appearances. But this is the part most people miss... Despite his success, Welbeck's future at Brighton has been a topic of speculation. With his contract extension, it seems Welbeck is ready to commit to the club long-term. So, what do you think? Do you agree with Brighton's decision to extend Welbeck's contract? Or do you think he should have been given more opportunities elsewhere? Share your thoughts in the comments below!
