Rotherham defender Michael Ihiekwe has agreed a three-year contract extension with the club.

Ihiekwe, 26, signed a two-year deal when he joined the Millers from Tranmere in 2017 and is a regular starter under boss Paul Warne.

"Rotherham United are delighted to confirm that Michael Ihiekwe has agreed a contract extension to keep him at the AESSEAL New York Stadium until the summer of 2022, subject to EFL and FA ratification," the club announced on their official website.

Liverpool-born Ihiekwe has made 64 appearances in all competitions for Rotherham, who are four points off the Sky Bet League One play-off places following relegation last season.
