Brighton boss Graham Potter is delighted with Teddy Jenks' new contract.
The former England under-17 midfielder is on board until the end of the 2022-23 season.
Potter said: “He is obviously learning from playing with the first team players every day.
“He is learning about the speed of the game and the challenges you face when you are at that level.
“He is a talented young player who has recovered from a bad injury and he is still in that process where he is getting stronger and stronger. He has got a good future. He is an intelligent footballer."
