Wolverhampton striker Kevin Doyle has signed a new contract that will keep him at the club until June 2015, it was announced on Wednesday.

The 28-year-old had two years left on his previous deal, but will now remain at Molineux for an extended period.

"It's great news that Kevin has signed the new contract and his future is now secured for another four years," Wolves manager Mick McCarthy told the club's official website. "He has been a key player for us in maintaining our Premier League status over the last two seasons when he has made a major contribution."

Doyle has scored 18 goals in 74 appearances since joining the club from Reading in June 2009.
