The Story in 60 Seconds

Bristol City midfielder Jason Knight played the full 90 minutes for the Republic of Ireland in their 1-0 Nations League defeat against Kosovo in Pristina. Following a late goal from Kosovo's Vedat Muriqi, RTE reporter Kathleen McNamee assessed Knight's performance, noting that he "looked a bit lost at times" and failed to make his stamp on the game despite showing solid work-rate off the ball.

The 25-year-old midfielder's long-term future at Bristol City remains uncertain as his contract is set to expire at the end of the season in June 2027. Michael Skubala's side faces the risk of losing Knight on a free transfer next summer if a contract extension is not agreed upon or if he is not sold during the January transfer window.
