Zoltan Gera has signed a new one-year contract with Premier League outfit West Bromwich Albion.

The Hungarian midfielder had been a free agent for the majority of the summer following his release by the Baggies at the end of last season.

However, having stepped up his recovery from a knee injury that he sustained earlier this year, West Brom manager Steve Clarke has decided to hand the 34-year-old fresh terms.

"It's great to have Zoltan on board for another season. He's a top professional and good within the group," Clarke told the club's official website.

"I believe his form last season before his injury was as good as at any time in his career and our main aim is to get him back to that level as quickly as possible. If he reaches that level again, he will be a great asset for us."

Gera originally joined West Brom from Fulham in 2011.
