Tom Sparrow

Signed a new two-year deal at the start of last season that takes him through to 2026 but wasn’t able to frank the contract with his best footy during the year. The premiership midfielder’s numbers were slightly down on his previous two seasons, which were the best of his career, and he will be looking to improve his output this year.
