Scunthorpe United defender Niall Canavan has agreed a new two-year extension to his current deal with the newly-promoted club.

The 23-year-old Iron youth product signed professional papers with the club in 2009 and has since made more than 100 appearances, scoring 12 goals.

The Sky Bet League 1 club confirmed the news via their official Twitter account and Canavan joins winger Terry Hawkridge and defender David Mirfin in agreeing new contracts this week at Glanford Park.
