Wolves hand defender Owen Otasowie new deal
Wolves have handed young defender Owen Otasowie a new contract, keeping him at the club until the summer of 2022.
The 18-year-old is on the bench at Watford today, and the club holds the option to add another year on his deal.
Sporting director Kevin Thelwell said: “Over the past months, I think it is clear to see that Owen has the potential to be a very good player and we have been pleased with his recent attitude and application.
“He’s a player who has recognised the importance of being professional, working hard, and with all the technical ability and physical potential he has, it’s now starting to come to fruition.
“We hope Owen can maintain his recent progress to continue to grow into another academy graduate that will challenge for first-team football both now and in the future.”
Otasowie made his senior bow against Besiktas in the Europa League in December.
Meanwhile, Wolves have sent under-23s midfielder Elliot Watt on loan to League Two side Carlisle for the rest of the season.
