Ex-Celtic ace Tony Watt pens new Motherwell deal and issues improvement message

Tony Watt insists he is only getting better at Motherwell after penning a new deal at Fir Park.

The former Celtic striker has extended his contract until the summer of 2022 after an impressive start to the new season.

Having featured for 12 clubs so far in his career, the 26-year-old feels he is improving after settling under boss Stephen Robinson.

“I’m delighted to have signed another deal,” he told the club website.

“The club have been great with me and I was really keen to stay longer. I’m settled and I feel like I am getting better and better here.

“It’s home – and I’m ready to kick on even more.”

Gaffer Robinson, who hailed Watt as "unplayable" earlier this season, was delighted to extend the top performers stay in Lanarkshire.

Robinson said: “Tony has been fantastic since he came to the club.

“He has worked his way to fitness to show us the player he is capable of being. He deserves this recognition.

“We will keep pushing Tony to be the best he can be, and I am sure he also will continue to work hard now he sees what he’s capable of.”
