Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall reportedly signs contract extension with Leicester City

Leicester City academy graduate, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall has reportedly signed a contract extension with the club after impressing during the 2021/22 season - per report.

The 23-year-old midfielder had his break-away season with Leicester, becoming a key player in Brendan Rodger’s team last season following loan spells with Blackpool and Luton Town. Kieran had to wait for his chance but since coming on as a substitute in the 2-2 stalemate against Southampton last winter, he hasn’t looked back.

TalkSPORT journalist Geoff Peters broke the news of KDH having ‘signed a new bumper long-term contract at Leicester City.’ The contract is said to bring his wages ‘in line with senior members of the squad.’

The Foxes’ fans are now awaiting the official confirmation from the club of ‘one of their own’ committing his future to the club. Leicester City, being quiet in the transfer window, has secured the renewals of four of their player namely. Ricardo Pereira, James Justin and Wesley Fofana with KDH waiting in line for his announcement.

The 23-year-old gave us some hints about extending his stay at City last week in an interview with LCFC TV, where he said: “The 2021/22 season will be one I never forget”

“Making my first-team debut and scoring my first senior goal for Leicester were magical moments. I’ve had a taste of Premier League football now, and just want to experience more of it and keep growing and improving as a player and as a team.

“I’m looking forward to the opening day and the challenge Brentford will pose. We’ll be fully prepared and will expect a tough game, but I’m just really eager for that first whistle now and can’t wait to get going again in the Premier League.”

The official announcement of Kiernan Dewbury-Hall’s contract extension could be announced anytime soon! So keep an eye out for this space!
