Nottingham Forest defender Aaron Donnelly has signed a new contract with the club.
The 19-year-old has penned terms on a fresh deal, which will see him extend his stay at the City Ground, although the expiry date of his new contract has not been confirmed.
Donnelly joined Forest from Northern Ireland semi-professional outfit Dungannon Swifts in 2019 and progressed through the Reds' under-18 and under-21 teams, making his first team debut against Grimsby Town earlier this season.

The defender played the full 90 minutes as the Reds won the Carabao Cup tie 3-0 and will be hoping for more appearances in the future. The teenager is highly rated at the City Ground and is looking forward to the years ahead.
"It feels amazing, and I’m pleased to get it over the line. I’d like to thank the Club and my family for their support in helping me get here," Donnelly told the Forest club website.
"Nottingham feels like home away from home for me now, it’s a lovely city, the people are nice and I’m really enjoying it.
"It’s a dream come true, firstly being involved in the under-18s and under-21s and then going on to make my first team debut this season was amazing.
"We’re playing against top level players every week which is really helping with our development and I want to keep pushing on from here."
