Doncaster Rovers midfielder Mark Wilson is happy to have sorted out his immediate future by penning a new two-year contract with the club.

The 29-year-old had been linked with a move away from the Keepmoat Stadium this summer after coming to the end of his previous contract, but admits he never really had any intention of leaving.

He told the club's official website: "I'm delighted to be here for another two years.

"I've enjoyed the past year-and-a-half and I'm happy to have signed so that I can continue playing for Doncaster Rovers.

"It was more of a case of the environment and the people that I'm surrounded by, as opposed to the lure of Championship football.

"Even if we'd stayed in League One last season, I'd have been more tempted to stay put - whether Championship clubs came in for me or not."

Meanwhile, Craig Nelthorpe has inked a new one-year contract with Rovers.
