Leicester City can confirm that an option has been activated in the contract of captain Wes Morgan, extending his current deal with the Club to June 2015.

The Club has also opened discussions with the player’s representatives to extend his stay beyond this date. Negotiations on a new contract are on-going.

Morgan, 29, has made 97 appearances for City since joining the Club from Nottingham Forest in January 2012, including 27 this season during the Foxes’ ascent to the top of the Sky Bet Championship.
