League Two side Doncaster Rovers sign Tyler Roberts to take their number of close-season signings up to eight

Roberts's arrival follows on from the capture of Gateshead midfielder Owen Bailey earlier this week.

The teenager is highly regarded by his parent club, with the promising talent signing a new contract with the Premier League outfit in late April - committing his future at the club until 2025.

The 19-year-old has been with Wolves for nearly 12 years and signed his first professional deal in November 2021, before moving up to the under-21s team in the 2022-23 season.

Walsall-born Roberts has also made his senior debut for the Jamaica national team last term.

Speaking about the player after he signed a new deal, Wolves academy manager for football Jon Hunter-Barrett, said: "He’s an exciting player who gets people off their seats, so he’s certainly one we wanted to ensure has a future at Wolves.

“He brings energy, enthusiasm and drive to football which is what excites everyone about him. People will go to his pace and technique, but Tyler also has an excellent mentality to want to learn and want to improve. He’s very coachable and he wants to take information."

Roberts has become Rovers’ eighth signing of the summer following the arrivals of Ian Lawlor, Richard Wood, Jamie Sterry, George Broadbent, Jack Senior, Joe Ironside and Bailey.
