Young Leeds defender Ross Killock has agreed a one-year extension with the Sky Bet Championship club.

The new deal will keep the 20-year-old centre-half, who is currently out on loan at Conference Premier promotion hopefuls FC Halifax, at Elland Road until the end of the 2015/16 season.

"I'm delighted to have signed a contract extension," Killock told Leeds' official website. "I'm now looking forward to getting a chance in pre-season and then I can kick on next season."

Killock has been on the fringes of the first team for a number of years but is still to make his competitive debut for Leeds.

He has previously spent time on loan at Alfreton and Chester.
