Brighton defender Leigh Kavanagh has signed a new deal.
The Irishman has penned a one-year contract with the option for another year.
The 19-year-old centre-back joined Brighton from Bray Wanderers in July 2020 before spending time on loan with Derby County's under-21s at the end of 2022.
Seagulls U21 coach Shannon Ruth said, Leigh's contract extension is great news for him and us. He continues to impress and ended the PL2 campaign well last season.
This will be an important year for his development and we look forward to helping Leigh continue his development and reach his potential."
