'Full of potential' - Joey Barton reacts as young Bristol Rovers striker signs new contract

Joey Barton has indicated that Harvey Greenslade may get a chance to prove himself in the Bristol Rovers first-team over pre-season after the young striker signed a new contract with the Gas.

Following the extensions of Grant Ward and Josh Grant’s agreements, the Gas have secured a third player to fresh terms with the 19-year-old signing a 12-month deal with his boyhood club.

Greenslade has been with the Rovers academy since he was seven and after travelling and training with the senior squad, made his debut in the 1-1 EFL Trophy draw with Plymouth Argyle last August and was part of the matchday squad for a League One game at Burton Albion.
