Wolves defender Jody Craddock is hoping to prove he deserves a new deal to stay at Molineux - but is "focused on getting fit" first.[LNB] Craddock's current deal expires at the end of the season after he agreed a one-year extension last summer.[LNB]The 35-year-old insists he plans to continue playing as long as he can and he is determined to show Wolves chief Mick McCarthy he should offer him a contract extension.[LNB]"The last three years they've given me a one-year deal at the end of each season so that is nothing new to me," Craddock told skysports.com at an event promoting EA SPORTS FIFA 11 Ultimate Team. "If I do well hopefully there is a good chance that I will get offered something again.[LNB]"I am not worrying about that now as my focus is on getting fit and getting back in the team."[LNB]The former Sunderland defender insists he is not even thinking of hanging up his boots despite turning 36 next summer and he feels he is good enough to keep playing in the Premier League.[LNB]"I do not have a clue when I will retire from playing," added Craddock. "As long as someone wants me and as long as my body can stand up to it I want to keep playing.[LNB]"I feel quite comfortable playing against these top players in the Premier League and I want to keep doing that for as long as possible."
