Chelsea goalkeeper Jamie Cu'mming has signed a new four-year deal with the Stamford Bridge side until the summer of 2023.
The 19-year-old, who joined the Blues at age of eight will be the club's third choice keeper under new boss Frank Lampard next campaign.
Cu'mming has featured for the London club three times this summer - keeping just one clean sheet in the three games.
He was in goal when they were held to 1-1 draw by Bohemians, before Chelsea thrashing St Patrick's Athletic 4-0.
Cu'mming is the latest of the club's youngsters to commit his future to the club after Mason Mount and Ruben Loftus-Cheek.
The 19-year-old described his new deal as "a great achievement" adding that he is looking forward to playing under the new boss next campaign.
He told the club's website: "It’s brilliant news, a very proud moment for me and my family.
"I’ve been here since the age of eight so to sign a new contract that keeps me here until I’m 23 is a great achievement. I’m now really looking forward to the new season. It’s a great time for young players at Chelsea," he said.
"We have a manager who is willing to put his trust in young players if they deliver and it’s been brilliant for me personally to get some minutes in pre-season," he added.
