Semi Ajayi, a defender for West Bromwich Albion, has signed a contract extension that would keep him at the club until 2025.
The 28-year-old joined the Baggies three years ago from Rotherham United and has appeared in 110 appearances for the club.
During the 2021-22 season, he made 33 appearances, scoring his solitary goal in a 1-0 win over Peterborough in August.
“The talks have been going on for a very long time so I’m glad we’ve finally got it all sorted,” Ajayi told the club’s website.
“I can now look forward to next season and doing my best to try and help this club get back to the Premier League.”
Following the departure of Valerien Ismael, manager Steve Bruce stated Nigerian international Ajayi has been perhaps the team’s greatest performer since he took over in February.
“I believe he has all the attributes needed to be a Premier League defender,” he added.
“This signing is key for us in terms of what we want to do next season and the rebuild which needs to happen.”
