Jack Bonham: Stoke City goalkeeper signs new one-year deal

Jack Bonham started his career as a trainee with Watford and spent six years with Brentford

Stoke City goalkeeper Jack Bonham has signed a one-year contract extension to keep him with the Potters until the end of the 2024-25 season.

The 30-year-old has played 49 games since arriving in the summer of 2021.

He has kept a clean sheet in Stoke's past three matches since coming into the side after Mark Travers was recalled from his loan spell by parent club Bournemouth.

"I feel settled and consider my game to be in a good place," Bonham said.

"The match against Middlesbrough felt like a big moment for me, given the circumstances of coming into the team at short notice, and I have since taken belief from how I have performed in the past three games."

Bonham is Stoke's third longest-serving player after Tyrese Campbell and Jordan Thompson, having arrived from Gillingham just over two years ago.

Stoke's technical director Ricky Martin said the goalkeeper has "resilient and stoic character" and is "highly respected" by his team-mates.

"Jack has shown both last season and this that he is a reliable and experienced goalkeeper who we can have confidence in to perform when called upon," Martin said.
