Wolves winger Matt Jarvis has put pen to paper on a new five-year contract at Molineux.

The 24-year-old wideman still had two years remaining on his existing deal but is now under contract until summer 2015.

Jarvis, who arrived from Gillingham in 2007, scored three goals in 34 Premier League appearances last season - his first in the top-flight.

"We've been talking to Matt and his representative for a long period of time," chief executive Jez Moxey told the club's official website.

"He was very keen to commit to us and we were very keen to commit to him.

"Matt is a highly talented player who fits in with our policy of developing good young players and aiming to keep them at Molineux.

"He started 30 games in the Premier League last season and did very well.

"He had less than two years remaining on his contract and it was the right time to do something.

"There was a lot of speculation linking him to a possible England call-up for the recent qualifiers which shows the progress he has been making."
