Tyler Roberts has signed pro terms with West Brom.

Roberts, who turned 16 on Tuesday, was given the birthday present in the shape of a two-and-a-half year contract at the Hawthorns.

"It feels wonderful. It's something I've been working towards since I was a kid.

"To have finally got here is an immense feeling. Finally having that sense of achievement is good and being on the bench a couple of times was a great experience for me, too.

"The coaches have told me to use this as a stepping stone. To not settle for this, but push myself on and become a regular in the first-team squad.

"I was told to keep doing what I'm doing. If I do then maybe the chances will come. I thank them and also my family."
