Lenihan sticking with Rovers

The 21-year-old, who made his Rovers debut in March, will stay at Ewood Park for the 2015-16 campaign.

"It's taken a while, but I'm very pleased to get my contract signed and sealed, and I'm looking forward to the season ahead," Lenihan told the club website.

"It's a massive season for me. For playing games and to make the break into the first team, I think this is the main season for me. I just need to work hard in pre-season and see where it takes me. If I do well in training, then hopefully the manager will pick me.

"This is my fifth season and I feel ready to make myself an established player here. The fans have been great over the past few years and I've experienced some tough times, but now I'm ready to put those times behind me and put the good times ahead."

Lenihan spent four months on loan at Burton last season, making 17 appearances.
