Hamza Choudhury has extended his contract with Leicester City until 2023.
The 21-year-old academy product has played a key part this season, starting all four matches under Brendan Rodgers in all competitions.
Choudhury has been at Leicester since the age of seven and signed a new deal nine months ago, but he has again been rewarded with fresh terms after making a big impact at first-team level.
It s an amazing feeling to extend my contract at this great football club, he told Leicester s official website. From being here since the age of seven to extending my deal until 2023, it s been such a long journey and hopefully [there are] many more years to come.
BR on Hamza Choudhury’s contract: “He’s a very talented young player who has come through the system here. He knows everything about the Club, he’s got a lot of work to do, but I’m delighted.”

It s difficult to sum up in so many words, but I ve enjoyed every moment of it. There s been highs and lows, like everyone s career, but I m just enjoying it and trying to fulfil all my potential.
Choudhury made his Foxes debut in September 2017 and has also been capped seven times by England at Under-21s level.
Leicester boss Rodgers sees plenty of potential in the young midfielder, telling reporters at Friday s news conference: He s a very talented young player who has come through the system here.
He knows everything about the club. He s got a lot of work to do, but I’m delighted.
