21 December 2010 17:30

Chelsea have ended speculation over the future of Gael Kakuta by announcing that the promising forward has signed a new four-and-a-half year deal at the club.

Kakuta, who joined the Blues in the summer of 2007 after a legal wrangle with former club Lens, was due to leave the Barclays Premier League champions when his contract ran out at the end of the season.

The Frenchman had been linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge but he has now committed himself to the club until 2015.
