Forest Green Rovers defender Udoka Godwin-Malife has signed a new two-year deal with the League Two club.

The 21-year-old, who arrived from non-league Oxford City in January 2019 and became a regular during the 2020-21 season, is now signed up until 2023.

"Dokes is a fantastic young player with so much potential," said Rovers director of football Rich Hughes.

"Getting him signed was a priority for us. We're really pleased to have got it done so early."

Godwin-Malife said: "This is where I got my first professional contract. Everyone here has been good to me.

"I've been shown great loyalty and I felt I should repay that."
