Promising Barnsley forward Fabio Jalo has signed a long-term deal at Oakwell.

The Portugal under-19 international joined the Reds academy in 2020 aged 14 and has made 23 first-team appearances.

Subject to EFL and FA approval, the 18-year-old's new deal runs until 2027, with a club option for another year.

Interim director of football Bobby Hassell said: "We were keen to secure (his) long-term future swiftly due to the obvious talent he possesses and the potential we see in him."

Hassell : "The progress that Fabio has made is testament to his hard work and the management from the staff at Oakwell to ensure his development is at the forefront of our thinking - an integral part of the long-term strategy implemented when he first joined us as a young boy."

Defender Owen Dodgson, meanwhile, has been recalled from his loan spell at Oakwell by parent club Burnley.

The 20-year-old made 15 appearances, the last in a 2-2 draw at Peterborough United on 29 December.
