Leon Britton: Swansea City midfielder signs improved contract

Leon Britton has signed an improved one-year contract with Swansea City, with an option of another year if he plays enough games next season.

The 34-year-old midfielder has represented Swansea in all the top four divisions since 2002, playing more than 520 games for the Welsh club.

"Leon has been and still is a fantastic servant to this football club," said Swans chairman Huw Jenkins.

"He is a model pro and we are very proud he is representing Swansea City."

The new deal also guarantees Britton a coaching role at Swansea after he retires from playing.
