New Contract Wasilewski Signs New One-Year Contract

[Jeff]

Defender Marcin Wasilewski has signed a new one-year contract at Leicester City, keeping him at the Club until the end of the 2016/17 campaign.

Wasilewski, 36, made nine appearances for the Foxes in all competitions last season, scoring once in a 2-2 FA Cup draw with Tottenham Hotspur in January.

The powerful centre back, having played 72 times for the Foxes since joining from Belgium outfit Anderlecht in September 2013, will bolster Claudio Ranieri’s defence during what is set to be one of the most exciting seasons in the Club’s history.

Alongside defending their Premier League crown, City will play in the group stages of the Champions League for the first time, and having played in Europe’s biggest club competition while at Anderlecht, Wasilewski’s experience will be of great value next term.

Kind of surprised. I love Big Was but he scares me a lot this season when he's played! Did well in the Everton game at the end of the season.

Hopefully we'll still get more cover at CB though and think he's good to have in the squad.

He played well up at Everton, too, earlier in the season.

I'd wager the club think he's a good presence around the dressing room, even if he isn't playing so much these days.

Plus, would you like to tell him he's off?

Spot on. Seems to be at the centre of a lot of the team events.

And he has a mean stare too.

Referee to 4th official - "You tell me him he is booked. I am not going to".

I guess nobody wanted to be the one to tell him he wasn't getting another year either ;-)

 

[Micky]

Do we think there is a chance that he will eventually take over Alan Birchenall's role as club ambassador?

Welcome to Leicester City....

I ****ing love him.

Champions League experience, good for the other lads.


BEAST!

Agree - I've re instated his 'Big Waz' nickname (after the Arsenal debacle) as one of the minor characters in my next novel (nothing to do with football though) - welcome back Waz!

Would like to think too, that we had the belief that the young Polish lad Kapustka would sign and Big Was would be useful to help him settle in.
