Forward Ben Brereton has signed a new four-year contract with Nottingham Forest.
After bursting onto the scene last season, the 18-year-old was soon linked with a switch to the Premier League.
However, after the teenager made a total of 18 appearances in the Championship, Forest have moved to secure his services until 2021.
He told the club's official website: "I am delighted to have signed a new contract. It is a great club to be at and I can't wait to find out what the future holds. It was good last year to breakthrough into the first team. It was tough as well but people believed in me and I was given my opportunity and thankfully I took it.
"Mark Warburton is a great manager and I like his style of play. He believes in me and kept on playing me at the end of last season; I just need to keep working hard, get some more games under my belt and try and score some more goals.
"Hopefully we can have a good pre-season, get in good shape and, with the style of football that the manager wants us to play, we can have a good season. We have a good set of lads so hopefully this season we can push on."
The youngster has scored three times since making his debut for the senior side in January.
