The Vancouver Whitecaps have re-signed captain Pedro Morales to a multi-year contract extension, the MLS club announced on Tuesday.
The team did not reveal terms or length of the new deal.
"Since Pedro joined our team at the beginning of last season, he has been nothing short of a top player and professional," Whitecaps coach Carl Robinson said in a statement. "Pedro is instrumental to the success of this club and a true leader for our young group of players."
The Chilean-born Morales, 30, joined the Whitecaps last season after playing for Malaga in Spain.
He recorded 10 goals and 12 assists last year and was named MLS Newcomer of the Year.
He has five goals and four assists in 19 apperances for Vancouver so far this season.
"My family and I are extremely happy in Vancouver and I am fully committed to this club," Morales said. "From Carl Robinson, to my teammates, to all the staff, and of course the fans, this is a first-class organization and I'm so proud to be a part of it. I will continue to work hard to help Whitecaps FC achieve success."
