Striker Morris Signs New Deal - Ipswich Town News
Young Town striker Ben Morris has signed a new contract which runs to the summer of 2019 with the club having an option for a further season.
Colchester-born Morris, who has won England caps at U17 and U18 levels and came through the Town academy, made his senior bow for Town as a sub at Crystal Palace in the Carabao Cup in August.
Last season the 18-year-old, who top-scored for the U23s with 12 in 2016/17 and has netted twice for Gerard Nash's side during this campaign, spent a brief spell on loan with Woking in the Vanarama National League last season, making two sub appearances.
