STRIKER Luciano Becchio has put pen to paper on a new three-and-a-half-year contract with Leeds United.
The Argentine forward, who has scored 47 goals in 126 appearances for the Whites has signed a deal which will keep him at Elland Road until 2015.
He said: “I’m very happy to sign the contract and stay at the club. I love the fans, we are doing well and we want to get to the Premier League. I want to be a part of that and I’m really pleased.”
Equally delighted was Leeds manager Simon Grayson, who said: “He has shown his importance to the club with his goalscoring ability. It was vital that we secured his services after losing Jermaine Beckford last season.”
