West Brom's Boaz Myhill signs 1-year contract extension

West Bromwich Albion is putting faith in its 33-year-old 'keeper.

On Tuesday, Myhill signed a one-year contract extension that will keep him at The Hawthorns until the summer of 2018. The Welsh 'keeper was previously contracted to the Baggies until the end of the 2016-17 season.

"We're delighted Boaz has agreed a contract extension and we've secured his services for an additional year," manager Tony Pulis said. "Boaz is a great professional and he provides good competition for Ben."

Myhill joined West Brom from Hull City six years ago, and, after suffering a season-ending knee injury in March 2015, returned to make 23 appearances in the 2015-16 Premier League season while tallying seven clean sheets.
