Danny praised the 18-year-old for his development over the season explaining how he is constantly improving: “We believe Ellis as an under 18 has played the most senior games in the country, so for a lad that age to do that is an unbelievable achievement.
“He is improving all the time, from the moment he came back to the club as a 16-year-old he has trained with us every single day. The players he trains with and the players he will come up against will make him flourish.
