Huddersfield Town manager David Wagner is “excited about the future” after he signed a new three-year deal at the club.

Wagner is a cult hero at the John Smith Stadium after he led the Terriers to the to flight for the 1st time in 45 years (since 1972) and went on to propel the team to Premier League survival despite the all odds.

He led the team to 16th place in the just concluded Premier League season and has been rewarded with a three-year contract until the end of the 2020-21 campaign.

First team coaches Christoph Buehler and Andy Hughes have also signed respective contracts to keep them at the club until the end of the 2020-21 campaign.

While reacting to his contract extension, David Wagner said: “The decision to extend my stay at this club was not a difficult one.”

“The relationship Christoph, Andy and I have with [chairman] Dean Hoyle, the rest of the board, the staff and the supporters is special. We’ve achieved some incredible things together in two and a half years and now I’m excited about the future.

“We still have a lot of work to do as we adapt to life in the Premier League, but this club and its people have the ambition, desire and attitude to take this challenge on.” the 46-year old concluded.
