Pascal Gross has signed a contract extension at Brighton until 2022.
The German midfielder scored seven goals last season as the Seagulls retained their Premier League status.
Gross, who joined Brighton last summer from Ingolstadt, told the club’s official website: “I’m very pleased to get the new deal done.
“I think we had a very hard year last season and I’m happy to commit my future to the club – it’s a very special day for me.”
The 26-year-old also provided eight assists and was a key player in Chris Hughton’s side, winning the club’s player-of-the-season award.
He added: “You never know how it will go when you move to a new country, but I was very happy with how everything went and now I want that to continue next season.
“We have a great team spirit here and we were all so determined to stay up – the togetherness is one of our biggest strengths.
“Our challenge for next season has to be to maintain those standards we set last year and stick together.”
