Walsall midfielder Kieron Morris has signed a new two-year deal which will see him stay with the Sky Bet League One club until 2018 after a successful season with the first team.

The 21-year-old academy graduate made his debut under Dean Smith in the 2013-14 season and scored three goals in 42 appearances this campaign.

Morris told the club's official website: "I'm delighted. I've played a lot more games this season and I'm really enjoying my football at the moment.

"Last year I had to go out on loan and get that experience but ever since I returned I think I've kicked on again.

"Everyone knows if I get the chance I'm not afraid to shoot and I'm probably a little unlucky to have only scored three times to be honest. I think I've hit the post more than anyone else this season!

"This is a great club for young players to develop and we've got a good group of young players coming through at the moment. You get a chance to prove yourself here and if you're good enough you'll be thrown in.
