Terriers midfielder extends deal

Michael Collins
Ireland U21 international Collins came through the Terriers' academy

Huddersfield Town midfielder Michael Collins has extended his contract at the club until 2012.

The 23-year-old scored 10 goals last season, including a dramatic late winner at local rivals Leeds United.

Boss Lee Clark told the club website: "Michael has the whole package. He is always looking to improve.

"That fits perfectly with my strategy. I want young, hungry players who are always looking to get better and progress up the League."

Clark added: "He also has a unique habit for a central midfield player - he scores goals regularly."

The Republic of Ireland Under-21 international joins Alex Smithies, James Berrett, and brothers Nathan and Tom Clarke in securing new deals with the club.
