Full-back becomes the latest Lille star to sign a contract extension
Mathieu Debuchy has signed a contract extension at Lille which will keep him at the club until 2015.
The full-back has played a leading role for the club this season in their pursuit of the Ligue 1 title.
He has recently passed seven years of senior service for Lille, having made his debut in January 2004.
A product of the club's academy system, he has been on their books since 1993.
Confident
He becomes the fourth player to pen fresh terms this season - following the lead of captain Rio Mavuba, defender Franck Beria and goalkeeper Mikael Landreau.
The current leaders of the French top flight are now hoping that the highly-rated Eden Hazard will follow suit.
The youngster has attracted plenty of interest of late, but Lille are confident they can convince him to extend a contract which already runs until 2014.
Frederic Pacquet, the club's financial director, has also revealed that coach Rudi Garcia is set to commit his long-term future to the club.
