Jonny Lomax's previous deal was due to run until the end of next season
St Helens have tied down stand-off Jonny Lomax to the end of 2024 after agreeing a two-year contract extension with the 30-year-old England international.
Lomax, who played for England in the 2017 World Cup final and is in coach Shaun Wane's elite training squad ahead of this year's tournament, said: "I have been at the club for a long time now and to sign that two-year extension to my existing deal is great.
"I've had my ups and downs whilst I have been here but now it is about me giving back as much as I can. I want to show the loyalty the club has shown me as well as the support the fans have given me over the years."
"It's a dream come true to be at the club for so long. I signed for the scholarship back when I was 11 years old and this contract will take me up to nearly 25 years affiliation with the club."
"That is something I would have never have dreamed of, especially after the back-to-back ACL injuries which was my third overall so to now get to where I am today and potentially finish my career here is fantastic."
St Helens chairman Eamonn McManus said: "Jonny has been one of the star players at St Helens and in Super League for a dozen seasons now but I believe that his best is still yet to come.
