Thomas joined West Brom after his contract at Portsmouth expired
West Brom winger Jerome Thomas has signed a new contract running until 2012, with the club having an option to extend the deal by a further year.
Thomas signed from Portsmouth in August 2009 and made 24 starts last season, scoring eight times as the Baggies won promotion to the Premier League.
"I'm really happy, I had a good season and I've been rewarded for that," the 27-year-old told the club's website.
"I feel I put a lot of good performances in last season."
Prior to moving to the Hawthorns, Thomas missed almost the entire 2008-09 season because of back injury - a problem he believes he is now fully recovered from.
"When I injured my back and missed a season at Portsmouth, it was a reality check on how quickly it can all go," he added.
"So, I worked extra hard last season and it's paid off. The club know my injury is not an issue now.
"I've come back in early for pre-season training to do my strengthening work and I feel good.
"My job is to set up goals and score goals - If I'm not doing that I'm not doing my job.
"I think I was consistently a threat last season and I'm glad the club have recognised that and rewarded me with a new deal."
As well as tying Thomas to a new contract, West Brom have also completed deals for Atletico Madrid and Blackburn midfielders Pablo Ibanez and Steven Reid and Auxerre defender Gabriel Tamas this summer.
