Crystal Palace defender Martin Kelly has committed his long-term future to the club by signing a new contract at Selhurst Park.
The news of his contract extension was confirmed by the South London club earlier on Friday.
The 28-year-old has signed a new contract that will take his time at Crystal Palace until the end of the 2020/21 season.
Martin Kelly came through the Liverpool Academy before making his first team debut for the five-time European champions in 2008.
The one-cap England international played 33 Premier League games for Liverpool and 62 matches in all competitions for the Reds before his exit in 2014.
Kelly joined the Eagles from Liverpool in the summer of 2014 after the South Londoners paid £2m to secure his transfer from the Merseyside giants.
The Englishman is a utility player that can play on either side of the defence (both as a left-back and as a right-back) as well as in centre defence.
He has featured for Crystal Palace 93 times in the Premier League since joining the club almost five years ago.
Martin Kelly has played just five times in the league this season as Eagles manager Roy Hodgson has preferred the back four of Aaron Wan-Bissaka, James Tomkins, Mamadou Sakho and Patrick Van Aanholt.
