“This has been my home for seven and a half years and I couldn’t be prouder to lead this club into the exciting future we have before us,” Doherty said on Friday.
He added: “As I’ve previously said, November 10th was so far the best day of my life and that pride I felt, having the whole club and community’s support, will forever stay in my heart.
“My aim now is to create more memories and give the people of Drogheda the success they deserve.”
Drogheda United CEO Rian Wogan hailed Doherty’s impact since taking the manager’s job in 2021 as “exceptional”.
“He’s brought stability, ambition, and belief to the club, culminating in last season’s incredible FAI Cup win.
“Kevin’s ambition and love for Drogheda United is infectious, and as a club with strong ties to the community, he is a leader that our fans can resonate with. We’re proud to have him leading us into the next phase of our journey.”
Drogheda host second-placed Derry City in Weavers Park on Friday evening [7.45pm, LOITV].
