Jamie Vardy is delighted with his new Leicester City deal.

The 29-year-old has put pen to paper on a new three-year deal that will take him up to the summer of 2019.

Vardy's new deal will see the forward net around £80,000-a-week, a significant increase on his current £45,000-a-week deal, while there are also a range of lucrative incentives attached.

On signing the new deal, Vardy told Leicester's official club website: "I'm absolutely delighted to be fighting to achieve something special with this club, as part of this squad. I've never known a spirit like it - from the owners, to the manager and his staff, the players and the fans."

He added: "I want to be part of it for a long time. Leicester City have shown nothing but total faith in me since the day I arrived here and it's impossible to measure how much that belief has helped me to improve.

"I'll forever be grateful for the investment the club has made in me and I'll spend every day working to repay it."
