Ex-Wigan midfielder Thomas re-signs with Colorado Rapids

Hendry Thomas has signed a new contract with Colorado Rapids it has been announced.

The 27-year old Honduran midfielder joined the Rapids from Wigan Athletic in August last year and has now penned a contract extension to remain with the MLS club. Per league and team policy, terms of the deal were not disclosed.

"In just a short time with the Rapids, we've already had a chance to see Hendry's quality, both in winning the ball and keeping possession," said Rapids Technical Director Paul Bravo.

"For his play on the field and presence in the locker room, signing Hendry to a more long-term deal was an offseason priority, and we're pleased to have him with us for 2013 and beyond."

Thomas added: "I'm very happy here in Colorado, and pleased that we were able to come to an agreement for me to stay with the Rapids.

"I'm grateful to the coaching staff, my teammates, and the fans for the support they have given me since I arrived. Now we'll continue working and improving this season so we can be part of the playoffs at the end of the year."
