Blackburn Rovers starlet Josh Morris has reportedly agreed a new deal at Ewood Park.

Rovers were in talks with the 20-year-old about extending his contract.

Morris' current deal expires in the summer and Blackburn were keen to secure the talented defender on a new long-term contract.

Blackburn boss Steve Kean is a big fan of Morris and sees him as a key part of the club's future plans.

Terms are thought to have been agreed between both parties with Morris expected to ink a new two-and-a-half year deal at Blackburn.

Morris, who can play at left-back or in midfield, has made one appearance this season as a substitute in the win over Manchester United, after making five appearances last term.
