Patrick Hoban has committed his future to Dundalk, ending speculation about his future by signing a new two-year contract.
The striker has agreed a deal with the League of Ireland champions which will see him stay at Oriel Park until the end of the 2021 season.
Hoban has scored 93 goals in 165 games for the Lilywhites, hitting the net a club record 76 times in the league.
"I am absolutely delighted to get it done," Hoban told dundalkfc.com.
"It has been a while but I am thrilled to get it over the line.
"I have had a very good four years at the club, I am closing in on 100 goals for the club and I hope to do that sooner rather than later. Hopefully the next two years will be the same as the last few and we can win all the trophies we can."
"It's great news. Pat is really important to us in terms of his character both on and off the pitch," Dundalk boss Vinny Perth said of the deal.
He brings real leadership for us. The challenge for Pat is for him to continue to perform on the pitch, to continue to score goals and we have to set new targets for him."
