Hibernian winger Alex Harris has signed a contract extension that ties him to the club until summer 2017.
The 19-year-old, who has made 19 first-team appearances and scored in last season's William Hill Scottish Cup semi-final win over Falkirk, recently returned from a five-month absence following a broken ankle.
Harris told the club's official website: "I'm delighted to have agreed a new contract - Hibs is my home and I'm really pleased that the deal has been agreed.
"My long-term goals are to establish myself in the first team, build on my performances from last season and help to push the team up the league.
"The new manager has already shown a lot of faith in me which is really encouraging and I just want to kick on from here."
Manager Terry Butcher said: "I'm really excited that Alex has put pen to paper and that he will be a Hibernian player for a long while.
"We're delighted to have him back from injury and part of our long-term plans. Alex came off the bench on Saturday and did well - his performance improved as the game went on and that augurs well for the future."
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.

We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers.
