Portsmouth defender Sol Campbell has signed a new two-year
contract.
The 32-year-old, whose current deal was due to expire at the end of
the season, is now set to remain at Fratton Park until the end of
the 2008-09 season.
Campbell has made 36 appearances for Pompey since joining from
Arsenal at the end of last season.
The former Tottenham centre-back was recently recalled to the
England squad before injury ruled him out of Steve McClaren's
plans.
Team captain Campbell was happy to have settled on an agreement
with the club.
"I'm delighted to have signed a new contract," he told the club
website.
"It's dragged on a bit but everything's been resolved. There's
always a bit of speculation around the transfer window but
thankfully that's over now and I can just concentrate on playing
football.
"The club's moving forward with a talented squad and plans for the
new training ground. The club is certainly going in the right
direction."
