Spurr signs new contract
Posted on: Thu 10 Sep 2009
Sheffield Wednesday is pleased to announce that defender Tommy Spurr has signed a new four-year contract with the club.
The 21-year-old left back, who is a product of the Owls' successful academy is regarded as one of the best young defenders in the Championship and has now committed to Sheffield Wednesday until 2013.
Spurr joined the club's youth system as a seven-year-old and quickly became established as a first team regular after making his debut in April 2006. The Yorkshire-born player is a firm fans' favourite at Hillsborough due to his energetic and determined displays and his 'never say die' approach to games.
Having made 135 first team appearances, scoring five goals, Spurr is now looking forward to building on his impressive early career statistics with Sheffield Wednesday.
Manager, Brian Laws, said: "I am really pleased that Tommy has signed a new contract with us at Sheffield Wednesday because he is one of our best players and is already respected around the League as a top young defender."
"Tommy is a great player to work with because of his enthusiasm and will to win as well as possessing genuine talent. While he has already played a lot of games for a young player, he has plenty of development ahead of him and it is quite exciting to think what kind of player Tommy can become in the coming years."
Tommy Spurr said: "I have been a Sheffield Wednesday player for as long as I can remember and I am delighted to sign a new contract with the club. The squad is probably as strong as it has ever been during my time in the first team and there is a real feeling that we can achieve things as a squad now so there was never any doubt in my mind that I wanted to sign a new contract here."
"We have looked solid as a defence and I think we are still growing as a unit defensively. I am really just looking forward to getting back out there and playing for Sheffield Wednesday and hopefully secure the wins that will keep us at the top end of the table.
