Wolves midfielder Harvey Griffiths has signed a new contract to stay at the club.

The highly rated young star, who is only 19, has been at Wolves since arriving from Manchester City in 2021.

The club have officially announced that Griffiths has penned an extension to continue his progress with the team's Premier League 2 squad.

Academy manager for football, Jon Hunter-Barrett, said: Seeing a player with high potential is one thing but you still need to have the form to back it up. Over the last two years, Harvey's form has been consistent and has progressively got better which means he's developed nicely.

Like any player coming into the programme we always look at what's going to make them and what's going to stop them. We always try to ensure the players continue to get opportunities to practice what they're really good at doing within the games programme and in the training environment.

Equally, what they're not and need to be better at, we expose them to and I think we've been able to get a good blend of that with Harvey.

Players with high potential will always have an opportunity in pre-season with our first-team and Harvey's got a great opportunity to go in, shine and show the manager what he's capable of doing."
