“Yeah definitely.”

Joe Aribo admitted when asked if winning promotion has increased the likelihood of him staying at Charlton.

The in-demand 22-year-old midfielder has courted the attention of a host of clubs this season in what he described as a ‘very good season’ on a personal level.

Talks of extending his contract have rumbled on for the best part of six-months, but like a lot of players whose deals will expire this summer, he will sit down with the club this week.

“I haven’t really been looking at what’s been going on,” he continued.

“I’ve just been focusing on my football.

“I don’t know what the future holds. I just want to enjoy my summer and then come back and look at what I have to be doing for next season and where I’m going to be.

“Everyone is going to come in tomorrow (Monday) and talk about what is going to happen next season.”
