St Johnstone boss Tommy Wright signs a four-year contract extension, the club have confirmed.

St Johnstone have confirmed that manager Tommy Wright has signed a new four-year extension to his contract.

The 52-year-old has led the Scottish Premiership side to successive top-six finishes and the first trophy in the club's history - the 2014 Scottish Cup - after taking charge in June 2013.

Wright has said that he is now looking forward to what lies ahead at McDiarmid Park after committing his future to the Saints.

"Of course, I'm delighted to have extended my contract. I am enjoying my time at the club, and I do feel there's still a lot to be done and a lot to be achieved," he told the club's official website.

"When I look at the squad of players, I realise how well we've done to assemble such a strong team and I know we can achieve more success together.

"I would like to thank the chairman and the club for their continued support."

Wright's new deal will keep him with St Johnstone until 2019.
