Hide AdMatty, Longstaff's younger brother, signed a new contract in August, and the hope now is that the 23-year-old can agree a long-term deal at the club which reflects his status as a first-team player.


Speaking in October, head coach Steve Bruce said: “There's two or three (contracts) we’ll look at in the next couple of months. Sean Longstaff's obviously up there with that as well."
Longstaff – who was a £35million target for Manchester United last year, and has been linked with Tottenham Hotspur – signed his present deal in 2018 before he had made his first-team breakthrough.
