Gunter began his career with Cardiff

Defender Chris Gunter has signed a new Nottingham Forest contract to keep him at the club until 2014.

The Wales international first joined Forest on loan in March 2009, before a permanent switch four months later.

Gunter, 21, said: "I'm pleased to have signed a new deal. My time here has gone as well as I could have expected.

"The education I got at Tottenham was invaluable but I felt I needed to apply that in games, which is what I hope I've done at Forest."

Gunter, who has been capped 25 times by his country, has made 11 appearances for the Reds this season.

"I felt I had a really good first full season at Forest," he added.

"The aim now is to improve because no-one really cares about what has happened in the past."
