Wells in talks over new Bristol City contract

Nahki Wells scored 10 goals in 43 appearances for Bristol City this season

Bristol City are in talks over a new contract for experienced striker Nahki Wells.

The 34-year-old Bermuda forward's contract comes to an end this summer - five-and-a-half years after he joined the club in a £5m deal from Burnley.

Head coach Liam Manning previously said he wants Wells to extend his stay at Ashton Gate, but that "discussions" still had to happen.

Wells has scored 48 goals in 237 appearances for the Robins, who are also in talks with Lewis Thomas about a new deal.

But the club have decided to release goalkeeper Stefan Bajic, Ayman Benarous - who has not played for more than two years because of multiple knee injuries - and Kal Naismith who has been at Luton on loan since January, following the conclusion of their deals.

Youngsters Kai Churchley, Tim Ap Sion, Marley Rose, Romani Rowe and Callum Wood will also depart Ashton Gate.
