Derby County striker Offrande Zanzala has signed a professional contract with the East Midlands club.
The 18-year-old, in his second year at the Rams' academy, has put pen to paper on a two-and-a-half year deal.
Academy manager Darren Wassall told the club's official website: "Offrande has, deservedly, signed his first professional contract.
"The academy is a long-term progression plan. Offrande joined us in 2009 so it has been a long journey for him to get to this level.
"At this club we want every player who is good enough to get the opportunity to move to the next level."
Zanzala has scored 11 goals so far this season in all competitions.
