The Argentine shot-stopper joined Saints from Gillingham in 2012 and has played 21 times across all competitions since his arrival at St Mary’s Stadium.
He told the club’s official website: “I am very happy. Since I came here from Gillingham, I have been growing up every day and with every training session and game.
“Every new person who comes to the club says that Southampton is like a family, and I can still say the same after three years. I am very comfortable here.
“Of course, if you ask any player, getting minutes is important but I am realistic – I know the goalkeeper position is difficult. I will still keep growing and keep training.”
Gazzaniga has made two Premier League appearances for Ronald Koeman’s side last term, but the 23-year-old is yet to feature for the Saints this season.
