West Ham United defender James Tomkins has signed new deal and will stay at the club until 2016.
Tomkins was linked with a move away from ‘The Hammers’, but will remain with the club.
“I’m really pleased that I’ve signed a new contract at the club,” said Tomkins.
“It’s nice to end the speculation about what people have been saying in the papers and commit my future to the club and concentrate on my football.
“By signing this deal, I’m showing my commitment to the club as they’ve been brilliant to me this year with all the support they have given to me and the rest of the players.
“If they continue doing that then together we can return the club back to the Premier League, where we believe we belong.
“Sam Allardyce has been brilliant this year as well and has shown what he can do on and off the pitch as a motivational manager.”
