Mathew Ryan extends contract with Levante UD

Australian goalkeeper Mathew Ryan, 34, has signed a one‑year extension with Spanish LaLiga side Levante UD. After appearing in 36 matches last season under coach Luis Castro, Ryan said returning to the club was “too good an option to turn down”. He highlighted the strong team spirit, close relationships with teammates and the support of Levante fans as key factors in his decision. The renewal keeps him in the Valencian community for another campaign, where he aims to build on the previous year’s performances.
