Perth Glory have today confirmed that star striker Andy Keogh has extended his contract with the club, keeping him in the west until 2019.
The new contract locks in Glory’s top Hyundai A-League era goalscorer until the end of the 2018/19 Hyundai A-League season.

“We are delighted to secure the services of Andy Keogh beyond next season, a player who plays such a key role in our team and club,” said club CEO Peter Filopoulos.
“Andy is now well settled in Perth and excitingly, he is also working towards securing his Australian citizenship.
“With 17 players contracted for next season, we are in a good position to build upon our squad in the coming weeks and months,” he added
Since arriving to Perth Glory ahead of the 2014/15 Hyundai A-League season, Keogh has played 70 Hyundai A-League games and scored 34 goals (12 in 2014/15, 10 in 2015/16 and 12 in 2016/17).
Despite his relatively short tenure at the club, Andy was recently voted by Perth Glory members as part of its Ultimate XI (1996-2016) team of the last 20 seasons.
“I’m thrilled that I have extended my contract for another year which will see me at the club for at least the next two-seasons,” said Keogh.
“I am happy at Perth Glory and my family and I have settled well in Perth and WA.
“I am also excited with what we are building here at the club and look forward to helping bring success for our members and fans very soon. I can’t wait for the 2017/18 season to begin,” the Irish striker added.
