Crystal Palace manager Roy Hodgson has signed a one year contract extension - keeping him at Selhurst Park until the end of next season.

The 72-year-old took charge in 2017 and has guided the club to successive mid table finishes in the Premier League.

Hodgson says he's "proud" of what he's achieved so far at the club he "supported as a boy":

"I am proud of what we have achieved since I was appointed two and a half years ago, and I look forward to us working together for the foreseeable future.

"Everyone knows how I feel about the club that I supported as a boy, I feel a special bond with the supporters and know that myself, the owners and the players are all working together to achieve the same goal."

Chairman Steve Parish said of the new deal: "I'm delighted that Roy has agreed to extend his contract with the club, and has reinforced his commitment to help us extend this period of unprecedented stability in the top flight.

"As I've said on many occasions, it is extra special that Roy has a long connection with the club and local community. He has established excellent relationships with everyone at the club, and crucially, the players trust and respect him."
