Kyle Vassell has signed a new two-year contract at Kilmarnock.
The striker has extended his stay with the Rugby Park outfit until the summer of 2025.
The 30-year-old joined on an initial short-term deal in January, as he became the club's first signing of the winter window.
The well-travelled striker has become a key member of Derek McInnes' squad.
He's netted two goals since joining, both coming in the Scottish Cup against Dundee United and Inverness respectively.
However, his overall contribution to the team and his ability to bully defenders, and bringing others into play has led to him becoming a popular figure at the Ayrshire club.
The Englishman says he feels at home in Killie.

He said: “It’s well documented that I’ve represented a number of clubs, but there’s something about Kilmarnock that instantly made the place feel like home. The passion of supporters and the intensity of the league is exactly what I was searching for at this stage of my career.
“The opportunity to continue working under the manager would have been enough to sign an extension alone, so it’s one of the easiest decisions I’ve had to make.
"Support from the boss, coaching staff, and fans has been incredible since I joined the club and I’m determined to repay every one of them for the faith that they have shown in me.”
Killie face an away trip in their final game before the Premiership split on Saturday.
They take on St Mirren on Saturday afternoon as they aim to win their first away fixture in the league this season.
The Buddies need just one point to secure their top six place.

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.
