Kirkland signs new Wigan deal

Kirkland signs new Wigan deal

21 May 2008 - 22:51

Wigan goalkeeper Chris Kirkland has signed a new contract with his club. The keeper has signed a deal until 2012, and should shun the interest of several Premiership sides who were keen on the England international.

  • Chelsea confirm transfer of 26yo French star
  • Arsenal set asking price to part ways with Nwaneri
  • "I knew Chris was a good keeper before I joined but until I had worked with him, I didn't realise just how good he actually is," said manager Steve Bruce.



    "Him signing this new deal is a massive boost for the club."



    Kirkland was reportedly a target for both Aston Villa and West Ham.
