Wolves head coach Gary O’Neil and his backroom staff have signed new four-year deals at the club, keeping them at the club until 2028.
It comes following a successful debut campaign for O’Neil, where the Midlands club finished mid-table in the Premier League.
They also made the quarter-finals of the FA Cup and picked up some memorable wins, including against Chelsea and Tottenham.
Alongside O’Neil, assistant head coach, Tim Jenkins and coaches Shaun Derry, Ian Burchnall, Neil Cutler and Woody Dewar have committed their futures.
Chairman Jeff Shi said: “I think the club has a positive future, building a new cycle for growth, better results on the pitch and ambitions to realise.
“To prepare for that, we need a very good team and I think Gary is a key member of the team, maybe even the most important member, so we are very happy to have him here for the long-term.
“The team together – me, Gary, Matt Hobbs and all the staff – we are working very closely to prepare for the new season.

“Gary is key and we are happy to have a very young, talented, capable and outstanding manager here.
“He works very hard and is very humble. He might be the humblest manager I have ever worked with and one of the most hard-working coaches I’ve ever met. His strengths are around his tactics and his chemistry with the players.”
Wolves have just returned from their pre-season tour of Marbella and O’Neil says he is looking forward to building even more success in the future at Molineux.
Shi added: “When you have a strong connection with the club, the staff and players, it’s easier for you to have a connection with the fans.
“The whole city, we’re one unit, and I think the whole city breathes life together with the club. If the club is like a team, then the whole city will be like a team too.
“I’m always very excited about the future and we want to do more. We want to make fans happy about us.
“Even after eight years, we feel it’s just the start for a long and successful period for the club. We are at the starting point at the moment and I’m very happy about this.”
