Matty James pens new Leicester deal

Matty James has signed a new deal with Leicester City.

James has signed a new four-year contract with Barclays Premier League newcomers Leicester that will keep him at the club until June 2018.

"I'm absolutely buzzing, I can't think of any other way to describe it. Heading into the Premier League, after the unbelievable season we've just had - to sign a four-year deal with this club is just fantastic," James said.

"For any club to offer you a long-term contract is a big compliment and shows a lot of faith in your potential, but to be offered one by a club as ambitious as Leicester City is something else."
