Michael Keane: Staying at Leicester until May

The central defender, whose present deal at Leicester was due to expire after Thursday's match against Wolves, signed his extension this afternoon.

Keane has made six appearances for the Foxes since arriving at King Power Stadium last November.

And the 20-year-old has been ever present in Nigel Pearson's team since the start of 2013.

Leicester manager Pearson said: "I'm really pleased that Michael will be staying with us until the end of the season.

"It's been a steep learning curve for him, but he has done exceptionally well for us."

m starting to think Roman may never actually be happy at the top level. If he wants all conquering fancy football I wonder if he'd be better off buying a lower division side then paying outlandish salaries to attract high caliber players too good for the division.

afa has to be favourite for the Everton job now, surely :) He'll realise his ambition to live and work on Merseyside again, get the best out of whoever plays for them, maybe win some cups and be thoroughly loathed by the toffee fans. What's not to like? Go ead, Ken, gimajob!
