Midfielder Karl Amon has agreed to stay on at Port Adelaide until the end of the 2022 season.

The 24-year old decided against returning home to Victoria to sign the three-year extension.

The left footer had his best season in 2019, averaging 20 disposals, four marks and three tackles over 17 games.

“I’ve never been more settled than I am right now in Adelaide,” Amon told the club website.

“There was some interest back home but I wanted to make the best decision for my footballing future and I feel like I’ve done that."

“The club has shown a lot of faith in me over the years and I knew it was the right fit for me going forward."

“Although we’re disappointed to not be competing in the AFL finals series, I feel as though the group is on the right path. We have shown we can beat the best but we obviously need to be more consistent, and the more we play together the better we’ll be.”

Drafted with Pick No. 68 in 2013, Amon made his debut in 2015 and has now played 49 games.

“With greater opportunity this year, Karl has become an important member of our midfield unit with his run and speed,” Power General Manager of Football Chris Davies said.

“His ability to get up and down the ground and to hit targets and the scoreboard showed through in 2019 and we believe he has more improvement to come.

“He is a great person to have within our playing group and we couldn’t be more pleased to have him at the club for at least another three years.”
