Brighton have announced Anthony Knockaert has renewed his contract with the club until June 2021.
Knockaert, 25, has been of the star performers in the Championship this season and his form has been key reason behind their promotion challenge this season.
“Anthony has been an integral member of the squad since his arrival in January last year, and I am delighted that we have been able to secure his immediate future to the club,” manager Chris Hughton told Brighton’s official website.
“The new contract recognises the hard work and relentless effort he has given to the team, and I am looking forward to working with him over the coming years.”
Knockaert only joined Brighton from Standard Liege in January 2016 and Brighton have done well to secure his future before Premier League clubs turn their head to his impressive performances.
No player has a higher rating in the Championship this season than Knockaert (7.72) after playing a direct hand in 18 goals in 33 league appearances this season.
