The club have told Dorman that the option will be taken up in his contract and he recently said he'd be happy to stay. However, there was a suggestion that Saints wanted him signed up for longer, but there doesn't seem to be any sign of an extended deal being agreed.
The option should, in theory, mean he'll be with us next season, but as his contract was up in the summer it now means anyone who wants him will have to pay a fee for him rather than sign him for nothing. There's still a good chance of someone stumping up the cash for him - but it will now have to be a fairly hefty fee for us to sell one of our top players.
