St Mirren Football Club is delighted to confirm Ryan Flynn has triggered an extension clause in his contract and will remain at the club for the 2023/24 season.
The midfielder - affectionately termed Flynniesta - is our longest serving first-team player having joined the club in January 2018 when we were on our way to winning promotion to the Premiership.
Ryan has since gone on to make 139 appearances for Saints – with 23 of those coming this season – and has taken his first steps into coaching after undertaking his UEFA B Licence.
The 34-year-old joins the likes of Greg Kiltie, Marcus Fraser, Mark O'Hara, Trevor Carson and Richard Taylor in extending their contracts in recent months.
St Mirren manager Stephen Robinson said: "I think Ryan brings vast experience and quality to the club.
He’s shown he can still go into the team and do well in numerous positions. As a squad player, he’s fantastic, and as an experienced professional, he’s exactly what we need at the football club.
"He’ll get involved in a little bit of the coaching in the first-team as well and I want him to be a part of what we are doing.
"It's vital to have experienced players," the manager continued. "They dictate the tempo of training, the gym work and the attitude around the place.
"The older boys in the squad are the ones who do a bit for me in terms of helping manage the players and it’s important he stayed given his quality and what he offers on the pitch as well."
