Barnsley have confirmed that midfielder Jared Bird has signed a contract extension until 2020.
The 20-year-old's previous deal at the Championship club was due to expire at the end of this season.
Bird joined the Tykes in the summer of 2016 following a successful trial period with Paul Harsley's Under-23s side and signed improved terms at the end of the 2016-17 campaign.
"I'm really pleased to be here," Bird told the official Barnsley website. "Since I signed my deal with the club in the summer, I wanted to sign another new deal to keep progressing here so to sign this is really pleasing.
"I think I have grown from being an Under-23s player to a first-team one, whether that's just being on the bench or out on the pitch involved, it's all a step forward.
"I have to keep looking forward now and into the future, when I'll hopefully be in Barnsley's first team."
Bird made his first-team debut in August and has since made three further appearances.
