Leicester City has confirmed that academy graduate Hamza Choudhury will extend his stay at King Power Stadium.
The 25-year-old midfielder has signed a new contract until the summer of 2027.
Choudhury has made almost 100 appearances for Leicester City Football Club since his debut in 2017.
Loughborough-born Hamza joined the Club at the age of seven and made his debut coming on as a substitute in a 2-0 win over Liverpool in the EFL Cup Third Round.
Eight matches into the 2023/2024 season the Foxes are first in the Championship table after winning seven matches.
