Aberdeen defender Mark Reynolds has signed a contract extension that ties him to the club for the next four seasons.
The former Motherwell and Sheffield Wednesday defender signed a four-and-a-half-year deal in January 2013, following a loan spell, and has now signed a one-year extension which commits him to the club until the summer of 2018.
Manager Derek McInnes told the club's official website: "This announcement reinforces the strong message from the club. It wasn't necessarily an urgent piece of business for us but it is an important one in our plans for the future.
"It's good that Mark sees his long term future at this club and his desire to be part of a successful Aberdeen team is clear to see."
Reynolds, 26, added: "I had no qualms about signing an extension as there is a real feeling that the club is heading in the right direction and will achieve the success that the supporters crave."
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
