Micky Adams put pen to paper this morning to sign a new 3 year deal.

The City boss had a year to run on his contract, but has extended it and earned himself a whopping payrise, reportedly worth half a million a year.

Micky said,

"I'm delighted to have signed again but you never, ever think you've made it and I'm going to redouble my efforts to make sure I feel as good as I do now by this time next year.

"It's going to be a big season next season in the Premiership and it was important we got this business out of the way as quickly as we could and it now leaves me with the task of assembling a squad which befits this football club and does us justice in the Premiership."

And contracts were flowing all over the place as it was revealed that Tommy Wright (2 year deal) and Matt Heath (1 year deal) have agreed new contracts, and all the backroom boys are staying, including director of football Dave Bassett.

Leicester City assistant manager Alan Cork, reserve team manager Peter Shirtliff and physiotherapist David Rennie have all committed themselves to the Walkers Stadium.

Leicester's chief executive Tim Davies said:

"Micky is a man who is very loyal to his staff so contract extensions for his team was an important consideration for him.

"But it wasn't as if a gun was being held to our heads.

"From our point of view, Micky and his team have brought success to this football club and the old adage about not changing winning teams does apply.

"I've been involved in some very important decisions during my time with the club but I'd say none have been more important than today.

"This is as important a signing as it's possible for the football club to make.

"Micky Adams has done a truly fantastic job in securing promotion back to the Premiership under the most difficult of circumstances.

"The new arrangement we've reached with Micky reflects that achievement and I believe we have the best young manager in the country, someone who will bring greatness back to Leicester City."

Adams himself added:

"It was important to me the club have agreed new contracts with my staff at the training ground, I'm pleased about that because they're important people to me.

"Not least of those is Dave Bassett and although I'm not prepared to discuss the length of his contract, I'm hoping he'll be here for the next three years."
