Forward Tyreece John-Jules has signed his first professional contract with the club.

Tyreece, who turned 17 earlier this month, has played for our under-23s and under-18s this season. He has been with our academy since May 2009 and has represented England at under-16 and under-17 level.

The striker has particularly impressed in the FA Youth Cup this season, scoring the winning goal against Liverpool in round four, and also finding the net in our 3-2 win at Middlesbrough in the last 16.

Everyone at the club would like to congratulate Tyreece on his new contract and we look forward to his continued development.
