Rotherham United captain Richard Wood has agreed a contract extension to keep him at the Championship club until the summer of 2020.

Wood scored a 103rd-minute winner in last season's League One Play-Off final against Shrewsbury - his second goal of the game - to secure the Millers an immediate return to the Championship.

The 33-year-old defender, who signed for Rotherham in 2014, made 42 appearances in all competitions last season.

"I'm really pleased, I am settled here," Wood told the club's official website.

"I am close to the training ground, my family are settled and at my age it is good to have the security.
