Joshua Kayode is delighted to sign his first professional contract with EFL League One club Rotherham United.

The 17-year-old will remain on the books of the Millers until at least the end of the end of the 2019-2020 season, having appended his signature to a two-and-a-half year contract.

Kayode was handed his debut in Rotherham United's 1-1 draw with Manchester City in the Checkatrade Trophy on August 15, 2017 and also appeared for the first-team against Bradford City in the same competition.

Writing on Instagram on Sunday evening, Kayode said : ''Happy to have signed my first professional contract with Rotherham United. It would have been impossible without my family by my side, hard work starts now😌🤙🏾''.

Bradford City, Mansfield Town (2), Grimsby and Bottesford are among the clubs Kayode has scored against in the current season.

Defenders Josh Emmanuel, Semi Ajayi, Michael Ihiekwe and Manny Onariase play for the first team of Rotherham United.
