The 26-year-old joined the Saints in February made 25 appearances during his first season in Inchicore, scoring three times, including two crucial goals in our UEFA Conference League run during the Summer.

The English midfielder spent 10 years in the Manchester City Academy before joining Barnsley in 2017.

There he made 70 appearances in the EFL Championship between 2019 and 2022 before moving to Turkey in July 2022.

"It feels amazing," he said. "Signing a new deal has been in the works for a while now, it was a no-brainer for me really.

"Stephen Kenny coming in helped me a lot, confidence wise and building me up.

"I feel like that is what I need at this point of my career, to get back playing games and try to be the best version of myself, and I feel like I can do that at St Pat's."
