Davis pens new Saints deal

Southampton goalkeeper Kelvin Davis has signed a new contract.

Saints' 34-year-old club captain, who joined from Sunderland in 2006, has put pen to paper to commit himself to St Mary's until 2014.

"I'm over the moon," he told the club's official website.

"I've never made it any secret that I want to play my football here and in the last five years I've had some interesting times.

"Certainly the last two years have been very positive, so to sign a new contract that keeps me going here means I'm delighted."

Boss Nigel Adkins added: "He has a lot of strengths, not only as a goalkeeper, but as club captain too, where his great leadership skills and personality come to the fore."
