Jonas Olsson has signed a new contract with West Bromwich Albion.

West Brom have handed in-form defender Olsson a new four-year contract.

He was due to be out of contract at the end of the season, but will now remain at the Hawthorns until 2016 at least.

"This is great news for the club and shows we're heading in the right direction," head coach Steve Clarke said of the man who was signed from NEC Nijmegen for £800,000.

"We've had a productive summer in terms of bringing new players in but it's equally important that you hold onto your best players, and Jonas certainly fits into that category."
