Kilmarnock have confirmed Lee McCulloch as their new manager after a successful spell as interim boss at Rugby Park.
The former Motherwell, Rangers, Wigan and Scotland forward took over from Lee Clark in mid-February and steered Killie to eighth place in the Ladbrokes Premiership.
The 39-year-old has now penned a new deal with the Ayrshire club, who will begin the 2017/18 campaign with Betfred Cup ties against Dumbarton, Ayr United, Clyde and Annan.
Director Billy Bowie told the club website: “This is an excellent appointment for the club. Lee has gained the respect of everyone associated with Kilmarnock FC and we are delighted to be going forward with Lee as manager. I would urge fans to get behind Lee and the team as we enter an exciting new season.”
