Leeds United midfielder Luke Murphy has signed a new four-year contract with the Championship club.

The 25-year-old joined Leeds from Crewe Alexandra two years ago and has made 72 appearances since.

"There wasn't really much to think about – I'm really happy here," Murphy told the club website.

"I've obviously had ups and downs but towards the end of last season I really started to feel at home. The atmosphere in pre-season is really positive.

"I started to feel as though I was playing my best football here and hopefully that can continue."

Leeds's 2015-16 Championship season begins with a lunchtime home match against Burnley on Saturday, August 8, but Murphy will not feature because of a knee injury.
