Lyon defender Dejan Lovren signed a two-year contract extension with the club, it was announced on Monday.

The Croatia international joined Lyon from Dinamo Zagreb in January 2010 and has started 14 games in Ligue 1 this season for Lyon, which sits fourth in the league table.

The 22-year-old has also been capped 13 times by Croatia, scoring one goal.
