Ireland international Niamh Fahey has penned a one-year contract extension with Women’s Super League side Liverpool.
The Irish international stalwart’s decision to remain with the Reds means she will extend her stay there to a six-year spell.
She has also 106 appearances for Liverpool.
Fahey led the Reds back to the WSL by lifting the Championship title in 2022 and made 15 appearances as they consolidated their place in the top tier with a seventh-placed finish last season.
“It was an easy decision and I’m delighted to extend my contract at this fantastic club – I couldn’t imagine being anywhere else,” she told Liverpoolfc.com.
“I’m already massively excited for next season. I’ve been here five years, seen a lot of changes, but the position we’re in now as a club is really exciting and the future looks really, really bright.
“I’m delighted to be a part of it and keep pushing the club higher up the table.”
Manager Matt Beard added: “Niamh’s a fantastic person, a fantastic leader, and her performance levels on the pitch have stayed consistently high for club and country.
“She’s our captain and we’re delighted she’s decided to extend her contract.”
