Stephen O’Donnell has extended his stay at the club after agreeing a contract extension.
The defender, who has been a mainstay at Fir Park since signing as a free agent in 2020, has put pen to paper on another two-year extension after previously agreeing to a two-year deal in 2021 after an impressive maiden season at the club.
Representing the club at the EURO 2020 and making 147 appearances since his arrival in ML1, the local boy has committed to another two years at the club. This extension is a one-year deal with the option of another.
“Stephen is an excellent professional,” manager Stuart Kettlewell.
“From availability to a high standards shown in training, he is a role model for young players.
“In my time here, he has been tremendous. Last season, he was asked to play in a number of positions but applied himself impeccably.
“It’s another player signed up early which is something I’ve been wanting to do.”
O’Donnell made his 500th professional appearances at the end of last season and the 32-year-old is excited to be back at Fir Park.
“This club means a lot to me,” Stephen O’Donnell said.
“I live locally and I’m very proud to represent a club that is a pillar in the community.
“Extending my contract is a delight. I’ve loved my time here and frankly didn’t want it to end.
“I will continue to give my all for the badge and give it my everything.”
