Diouf extends Leeds stay
Leeds United have rewarded El-Hadji Diouf for his performances this season with a new 18-month deal.
The Senegalese striker joined the club on non-contract terms before agreeing a deal until the end of January, but has now signed an extension which will tie him to the Whites until the end of the 2013/14 campaign.
He's a player who can change a game and I'm delighted we've been able to keep him. Neil Warnock
Leeds, who are 8.00 to be promoted, take on Ipswich at Elland Road on Saturday and are 11.00 to win 2-0, with Diouf 6.00 to score first.
"We're delighted he's agreed everything and hopefully he'll enjoy the next 18 months with us," Leeds manager Neil Warnock told the club's official website.
"Obviously it's a massive boost for everyone to know we're going to have him around, and this is what we've wanted to do.
"He's a match-winning player, and there aren't many of them around. He's a player who can change a game and I'm delighted we've been able to keep him.
"He's also fitted in really well, and he's been great with the lads."
Diouf, 31, has made 24 appearances so far this season, finding the back of the net five times.
