Hull City midfielder Sam Clucas has signed a new three-year contract with the Premier League outfit.

The 25-year-old joined the Tigers from Chesterfield in July 2015 and contributed six goals and eight assists in all competitions last term as the club returned to the top flight of English football.

Clucas has now put pen to paper on a new deal that will run until 2019 after making his Premier League debut in Hull's 2-1 win over the champions Leicester City at the weekend.

"I'm delighted to extend my stay with the club. I had a wonderful first season here, which culminated in the club winning promotion to the Premier League. It was a thoroughly enjoyable campaign and one that will stay with me for a long, long time," Clucas told the club's official website.

"I've got a great connection with the staff, players and fans here. It's a fantastic group to be part of. The spirit in the squad is second to none and we are determined to achieve our goals in the Premier League this season."

Clucas started his professional football career with Lincoln City in League Two.
