Schlupp extends Leicester stay

Ghana international Jeffrey Schlupp has signed a new deal with Leicester City which will keep him at the club until 2019, the English Premier League side announced Monday.

The 22-year-old full-back cum left winger has been linked recently with Arsenal, Manchester United and Aston Villa after impressing for Leicester as they avoided relegation from the Premier League last season.

"Jeffrey Schlupp has committed his future to Leicester City by signing a new contract to keep him at King Power Stadium until June 2019," said a statement on Leicester's website.

"The 22-year-old Ghana international enjoyed an outstanding debut season in the Barclays Premier League, which culminated in a double triumph at the club's end of season awards, where he won the Players' Player and Young Player of the Year titles."
