Former Brighton & Hove Albion goalkeeper, Fynn Talley, said he was still waiting to hear whether Kitchee would hand him a contract extension for next season.

Talley has been one of few shining lights in a bleak season for the club, after he signed from Peterborough United last summer.
The Englishman has defied expectations by claiming a regular starting spot, given most clubs prefer to have their six foreign players in outfield positions.
And Talley, who has kept five clean sheets in 21 appearances, said he would 'love to stay another season'.
The Post has learned that Jay Haddow, the 21-year-old defender, has signed a new two-year contract, although he is on course to receive a Hong Kong passport, and qualify as a local player, before next season.
After Kitchee won a drab match 3-1 against Football Club on Saturday, Talley said: 'We have three more games, then I don't know what's going on, I'm waiting to hear something.
