“I’m absolutely delighted, it’s a great feeling to sign with your Bhoyhood club on a new contract.
“It never gets old, that feeling of being able to put pen to paper to secure your future where you want to be.
"Essentially, this is where I want to play my football and it’s another proud moment in my career.
“I just put my head down every day and worked hard since I signed my last contract two years ago and it’s just been a case of going in, getting work done, doing my best for the team and helping to bring success.
“And I feel that, as a team, we’ve managed to do that, and within that players get their rewards, so like I say, I’m absolutely delighted to get it done.”
