Swindon midfielder Michael Timlin says there is a "strong chance" that he will sign a permanent contract with Swindon Town this summer.

The 23-year-old, who is on loan from Fulham, is one of three players offered new deals at the County Ground.

"I'm not going to beat around the bush. I get on well with the gaffer," Timlin told BBC Radio Swindon.

"I like the sound of how he's going to go with the team next year, so there is a strong chance."

"We've left it at the moment. I'll just have to make sure I concentrate on the last two games," added the former Ireland Under-21 international.

"I want to make sure I play in them and make sure I play well.

"I've said all along that this is a good club and I enjoy being here."

Swindon boss Maurice Malpas brought Timlin back to the club in mid-March for his second loan spell at the County Ground.
