Leicester City goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel has penned a new deal keeping him with the Foxes until 2023.

The Denmark stopper has made nearly 300 appearances since signing in 2011 and helped the club lift the Premier League title two years ago.

Schmeichel, now 31, was pleased to extend his stay by five years and told the club’s official website: “I’m very happy to be here for many more years.

“I’ve spent the majority of my career at Leicester now and had some amazing times here, so hopefully we’ll have some more.

“I’ve felt at home at this Club from day one, so I’d like to thank the fans for the support they’ve given me and also the owners who’ve played a huge part in my career.

“I want to bring more success to this Club as I’ve loved every minute and hopefully we can keep going in the right direction.”
