Goalkeeper Alan Blayney agrees new Linfield contract

Alan Blayney won the 2010-11 league and cup double with Linfield

Northern Ireland international goalkeeper Alan Blayney has signed a two-year contract extension with Irish Premiership champions Linfield.

It ties the former Southampton and Doncaster player to the Belfast club until the end of the 2013-14 season.

Blayney joined Linfield from Ballymena in 2009 following the departure of Alan Mannus to Shamrock Rovers.

"I will work hard to try to repay the faith Linfield have shown in me," Blayney told the club's website.

"I do not want to go anywhere else. I have never been happier.

" With respect to my previous clubs, Linfield are the best club I have ever been at."
