Jack Stephens: Southampton defender signs new two-year contract

Southampton defender Jack Stephens has signed a new two-year contract with the Championship club.

The 29-year-old has been at St Mary's since he was 17, when he moved from Plymouth Argyle, and has made 151 appearances so far for Saints.

Last season the Cornish-born defender played 17 Premier League games as Southampton finished bottom to end an 11-year top flight stay.

His deal comes as Duje Caleta-Car and Tino Livramento leave the club.

Livramento agreed a £40m deal to join Newcastle United on Thursday while Croatia defender Caleta-Car has signed for Lyon and there is still speculation linking Romeo Lavia with a move to Liverpool.
