Kotwica signs new deal

Cheltenham Town have announced that teenage winger Zack Kotwica has signed a two-year deal with the club.

The 17-year-old's first professional contract comes after he featured in all three of the Robins' opening games this season. "Now is the time for Zack to knuckle down and work hard," manager Mark Yates told the club's official website. "Zack is another locally born player and we are delighted with that but it doesn't mean too much. He needs to work hard to become a good player and get his head down. "He has done well so far this season and he needs to continue doing so."
