Williams pens new Crystal Palace deal

Midfielder Jonathan Williams has signed a new contract with Crystal Palace.

The 20-year old Wales international has penned a fresh deal with the Eagles which will keep him at Selhurst Park until the summer of 2018, adding an extra 12 months to the five-year deal he signed in May 2012.

"I'm very proud to be playing for Palace and to be signing another contract," said Williams.

"It's something I always dreamed of as a kid and to be signing another four-and-a-half year deal here is just a great feeling.

"I've been here since I was eight and I think this is the third professional contract I've signed at Palace.

"I still remember the feeling when I got my first one when I was 17 - it's just a great feeling. It's a great honour to play for Palace and now we're in the Premier League it can't get much better than that."
