Celtic goalkeeper Artur Boruc has signed a contract extension to tie him to the SPL giants until the summer of 2011.

The 27-year-old Poland international had been linked with a move away from the Bhoys, but he has now pledged his long-term future to the club.

Manager Gordon Strachan told the club's official website: "Clearly this is great news for the club and we are delighted to have agreed this new extended contract with Artur.

"He has made a massive contribution to our success in the past two seasons and will hopefully continue to do so in the years ahead."

Chief executive Peter Lawwell added: "We are absolutely delighted to have successfully concluded our discussions with Artur.

"He is an important part of Gordon's squad and it is great news for everyone that he has committed his future to the club."

Boruc joined Celtic in the summer of 2005 from Legia Warsaw and has established himself as one of Europe's top keepers during his time in Glasgow.
