CONFIRMED: Danny Simpson signs new three-year contract with Leicester City

Leicester defender Danny Simpson has signed a new three-year contract with the Premier League champions.

The right-back has committed his future to the Foxes until 2019 after helping them win a shock title by 10 points last season.

Simpson is the second Leicester player to sign fresh terms this week after Marc Albrighton agreed to stay at the club until 2020.

Simpson said: "I'm over the moon. I've been here two years now and the club is going places, I've said all last season.

"The group that we've got here is so close and the manager since he's come has helped me so much and still is helping me improve as a player.
