Birmingham starlet Wilson signs new deal

Jared Wilson has signed a new one-year contract with the Premier League new boys Birmingham. The 20-year-old said, "My whole aim last year after I played the match (against QPR) was to go out and get some first-team experience so I went out to Chesterfield to get that," he told the club's official website.

"I think the contract is a bit of a reward for doing well in the youth team and whilst I have been away on loan.

"It shows the manager thinks a lot of me which is good for me. When I come back for pre-season, I am going to give 100 per cent in every training session.

"Maybe I might be in the squad this season with the use of seven substitutes, which would be great for me in the Premier League."
