Malouda agrees Lyon deal

Lyon star Florent Malouda has signed a new two-year deal at the club.

Lyon star Florent Malouda has pledged his long-term future to the club by signing a new two-year deal.

The new deal will keep Malouda at Stade de Gerland until 2010.

Lyon have been locked in talks with Malouda for some time and the news will come as a massive boost ahead of their UEFA Champions League clash with PSV Eindhoven next week.

A number of top clubs around Europe were reported to be tracking Malouda, but Lyon have moved to keep the French international at the club.

The 25-year-old admitted he was happy to stay at the French champions.

"I'm feeling fine here," Malouda said. "Extending my contract was the way for the club to confirm they have a great faith in me".
