Young striker Jack Marriott pens new 18-month Ipswich Town contract

Jack Marriott has become the second player to sign a new contract at Ipswich Town today, agreeing an 18-month extension at Portman Road.

Marriott, 19, joins left-back Aaron Cresswell, who earlier signed a new three-and-a-half-year contract, in committing to the Tractor Boys.

"Obviously I'm delighted to have been offered a new contract," Marriott told the club website.

"It's what I've been aiming for, to win a new deal and I couldn't be happier."

The striker is currently on loan at Woking in the Conference and has scored six goals in five games, including a hat-trick in the recent 4-3 victory at Halifax Town.
