Motherwell hero Kevin van Veen signs contract extension

Motherwell have been given a boost by news that striker Kevin van Veen has signed a one-year contract extension.

The talismanic striker is contracted at the Fir Park club until 2024, and is a timely boost ahead of their Europa Conference League second qualifying round second leg against Sligo Rovers on Thursday evening.

Motherwell currently trail the Irish side 1-0.

Van Veen joined Motherwell from Scunthorpe in 2021 and was top scorer last season with 11 goals.

Boss Graham Alexander is delighted with the news (SNS Group)

Boss Graham Alexander told the club's website: "I'm glad we have secured Kevin for another two seasons after a great impact in his first year with us.

"He has flourished being in a place where he has trust, respect, and a team he enjoys playing with.

"I believe he has even more in the tank, and I know how much he wants to help us continue our success from last year."
