Blackburn Rovers defender Tom Atcheson has signed a new four-year contract at Ewood Park with the option for a further 12 months.

He became Rovers' fourth youngest player to make a first-team appearance when, at 16 years and 343 days, he featured as a late substitute in their 8-0 Carabao Cup win at Harrogate last season.

The 18-year-old also appeared in Blackburn's FA Cup fourth-round victory over Wrexham last season but is yet to play a league game.

Atcheson, a Northern Ireland Under-19 international, is currently on loan with National League North side Marine.
