Leko pens new deal with West Brom

Winger Jonathan Leko has penned a new long-term contract at West Bromwich Albion.

Leko made his first-team debut for West Brom as a 16-year-old in September 2015 but the youngster has only gone on to make a total of 16 outings for the Baggies.

However, the 19-year-old is still highly regarded at The Hawthorns and the West Midlands outfit have moved to hand the player a deal until 2021.

Leko told the club's official website: "I'm really happy to have signed this deal - I've been here since I was 11 and now I want to push on and get myself a regular first team place.

"I want to be more involved next season and become a first team starter. That's my goal."

This season, Leko featured on 11 occasions in the Championship during a loan spell with Bristol City.
