Southampton midfielder signs new three-year deal

 

Southampton have announced Steven Davis has put pen to paper on a new three-year deal keeping him at the club until 2019.

 

Davis, who is currently captaining Northern Ireland’s Euro 2016 campaign, has been a first-team regular for Southampton since joining in 2012.

 

The 31-year-old finished last season in tremendous form and Southampton have move to tie down the midfielder’s remaining best years ahead of welcoming Europa League football in the group stages for the first time in their history.

 

“I am delighted that Steven, another influential leader in the dressing room and on the pitch, has committed his future to Southampton,” Saints’ executive director of football Les Reed said.

 

“He is leading Northern Ireland’s campaign at Euro 2016 and representing his country and our club as a true ambassador.

 

“Southampton fans know only too well how much energy and effort he puts into games and our players know that when needed he will be there to help them.”
