In-form Wellington Phoenix forward David Williams wants to know if coach Mark Rudan will be sticking around before making a decision on his own future. I'm in no rush but it would be nice to have the future sorted," he said. The Phoenix have tabled an improved offer in an attempt to keep hold of Williams but the uncertain future of coach Rudan appears to have stalled contract negotiations. He has publicly stated that he will not stay in Wellington without his family, who are currently living in Sydney. But while he "could not speak more highly" of the coach, club and city, Williams said he needed more clarity around the coaching situation before he could consider committing his long-term future to the Phoenix.
