Auckland FC has signed Cam Howieson to a two-year contract extension, committing his future to the club. Howieson scored the only goal in the grand final victory over Sydney FC at a sold-out Go Media Stadium. The 31-year-old attacking midfielder has made Auckland his home for nearly a decade. He was unanimously named the Joe Marston Medal winner as player of the grand final. Football director Terry McFlynn said the club was delighted to keep him. "Cam is a proud Aucklander, and you saw in the grand final exactly what he means to Auckland and this squad. We are delighted he is staying at Auckland FC."
