Kasper Schmeichel signs new Leicester City deal
Danish goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel has put pen to paper on a brand new contract with Leicester City. The shot stopper, who helped the Foxes to their first and only Premier League title, has signed a deal worth a reported £140,000 per week.
The 31-year-old has proved to be a legendary figure at Leicester City and will no doubt be delighted to extend his stay at the club.
“I’m very happy to be here for many more years. I’ve spent the majority of my career at Leicester now and had some amazing times here, so hopefully we’ll have some more," said Schmeichel, after penning his new deal.
“I’ve felt at home at this club from day one, so I’d like to thank the fans for the support they’ve given me and also the owners who’ve played a huge part in my career.
“I want to bring more success to this club as I’ve loved every minute and hopefully we can keep going in the right direction.”
It had been rumoured that Schmeichel is a long-term target for Man Utd and also Chelsea.
