West Bromwich Albion midfielder James Morrison commits his future to the Baggies by signing a fresh four-year contract.

West Bromwich Albion have announced that midfielder James Morrison has put pen to paper on a new four-year contract.

The 26-year-old, who moved to The Hawthorns in 2007, managed to net five goals from the middle of the park for the Baggies last season.

West Brom boss Steve Clarke told the club's official website: "After strengthening the squad during the transfer window, it's equally important to hold on to your best players and I'm delighted James has signed a new deal.

"The new contract is fair reward for James's hard work and efforts. He's been here a number of years now and has always been one of the key players."

Sporting and technical director Dan Ashworth added: "I'm delighted James has committed his future to the club for the next four years.

"He's been one of our most effective players in the Premier League over the last couple of seasons and fully deserves his improved deal."

Morrison is the longest-serving player in the Baggies' current squad.
