Elijah Adebayo earned a new contract of undisclosed length at Premier League newbies Luton Town.
Luton striker Elijah Adebayo has signed a contract extension at Kenilworth Road.
The 25-year-old has scored 32 goals in 109 games since joining from Walsall in January 2021 and played a major part in the Hatters' promotion to the Premier League last season.
"It's wonderful to sign any contract, but especially here because since I've come in I've enjoyed my time here," Adebayo told the official club website.
"Since I joined it's been a whirlwind. When I first signed I remember saying I was here for the ride, the rollercoaster, and to just enjoy it - it's been that and then some.
"The last couple of months have been fantastic and those are the moments why we want to be in the job."
Luton have not disclosed the length of Adebayo's new deal.
Hatters manager Rob Edwards said: "We are really pleased for Eli to commit.
"It's a fantastic re-signing. Since we arrived, he played in almost every league game and his work-rate was so consistent."
Adebayo follows team-mates Luke Berry, Amari'i Bell, Carlton Morris, Cauley Woodrow, Reece Burke, Tom Lockyer and Pelly Ruddock Mpanzu in agreeing new terms since Luton returned to the top flight for the first time since 1992.
