Erik Pieters: Dutch defender signs new one-year deal with West Brom

West Bromwich Albion defender Erik Pieters has signed a new one-year contract with the Championship club.

The Dutchman made 36 appearances last season after arriving in September following his release by Burnley.

Pieters, 34, began his career at FC Utrecht and PSV Eindhoven before first coming to England 10 years ago when he joined Stoke City.

"I was very keen to keep Erik at the club after his contribution last season," said boss Carlos Corberan.

"His experience and versatility are both important, but first and foremost he is an excellent defender - and also the type of personality we want in our squad.
