Schmeichel happy staying with Leicester

Kasper Schmeichel is happy to be staying with Leicester City.

The Dane, who was out of contract in the summer, has agreed to commit his future at the King Power Stadium, reportedly on a four-year deal.

"There have been opportunities, and there have been some very interesting things," Schmeichel told Ekstra Bladet.

"My goal has always been to play in the Premier League, and that will be at Leicester. I feel really good about the club.

"I do not think there is any reason to start taking chances with my career right now.

"You are never guaranteed to play, but I do know that I have a good chance to play in Leicester.

"For me, time has always been the most important. If it had not been the case, then there might have been some switches considered.

"But that's not what I'm interested in right now. For me, it's about playing and trying to establish myself as a Premier League goalkeeper."
