Coventry City manager Aidy Boothroyd had said the Keiren Westwood wants to stay at the club, but it is his representatives who are to blame for the stalemate and are preventing the 25 year old Irish international goal keeper from signing a lucrative new deal with The Sky Blues..
Speaking at the fans Forum at The Ricoh Arena last night, Boothroyd claimed, "Kieren is settled in the area, his wife is about to give birth and he loves the relationship he has with the fans."
"I know he wants to stay and we want him to stay but there are outside parties that stand to earn an awful lot of money off him if he was going. I don't blame anyone in this situation because heads get turned."
"I think he'll be worth a lot more to the club when he's in a consistently winning team and I think he'll be a lot better player when he's had a promotion under his belt and gets to play in the Premiership. I have spoken to Keiren and he wants to stay and it is a question of making sure that his representatives are happy with what we have offered.
"I can tell you we've made him a very, very good offer and we're waiting to see what happens. It's a bit of a waiting game because they want to get the best they can and we want to get the best we can."
