He excelled in the Professional Development League and has now commented on his new deal with the club.

“I played a lot of minutes last season and wanted to earn a new contract. I just wanted to focus on playing as much as possible and help the team.

“Being a professional was a big change and initially shocking, but in a positive way! Everything increases, including your playing style and degree of intensity.

“Getting into the first team and training with them as much as possible is everyone’s goal. I want to perform to the best of my abilities.

It feels like home to me, and I’ve developed some incredible friends with the guys and instructors.
